The largest and most comprehensive virtual high-throughput screening ever carried out validates the effectiveness of a tool capable of designing new molecules with potential pharmacological use
Coordinated by the University of Bologna, the initiative aims to introduce fishing boats with hybrid engines and the use of renewable energy sources to reduce emissions and improve the economic sustainability of small and medium-sized enterprises in the sector
Created thanks to the Dolichens project and coordinated by the University of Bologna, the database, constantly updated, collects about 75,000 data referring to about 1750 species: more than half of those known for the entire Alpine region
Scholars from the SUS3D research project will use machine learning systems to analyse around forty dairy cattle farms to suggest a virtuous model of environmental, socio-economic, ethical sustainability, and animal welfare
Using observations from the new James Webb Space Telescope, an international team of astronomers has demonstrated for the first time that massive galaxies lose their ability to form new stars due to winds so strong that they can sweep away all the gas
This innovation, patented by the University of Bologna, consists of films made from natural polymers containing various types of encapsulated natural extracts, which hydrate and transform into gel upon application
A detailed analysis of observations and numerical simulations shows that these destructive phenomena form in northern Italy at the confluence of three air masses coming from different directions and with different characteristics, such as humid, dry and colder air masses: a mechanism similar to that of "Tornado Alley" in the United States
A research group at the University of Bologna has successfully run a quantum optimisation algorithm that uses quantum and classical resources in synergy, confirming the potential of this type of technology
This disease can strike from adolescence, but often goes undiagnosed for many years. The Erasmus+ project led by the University of Bologna has devised a free online course to train doctors in the timely recognition of the condition
The European research initiative, which includes the University of Bologna, aims to identify the tactics, techniques and procedures used by foreign state and non-state actors in the field of information manipulation, with a view to proposing solutions and countermeasures to deal with the threat
Guided by Paolo Melchiorre, professor at the Department of Industrial Chemistry "Toso Montanari" of the University of Bologna, the frontier research project, funded with 3 million euros by the European Research Council, aims to develop new photobiocatalytic tools for sustainable synthesis of molecules of interest, which can lead to, for example, new drugs
Funded by the third edition of the Telethon-Cariplo Call for applications, the aim of the initiative is to understand the mechanism of the disease that affects the structure of the eye, in order to pave the way for possible therapeutic treatments
This technology, patented at the University of Bologna, allows for the development of an irrigation system that maintains an optimal degree of moisture in agricultural soils. Field trials have shown a water saving of 41%, between June and October
Coordinated by the University of Bologna, the project was mentioned by CORDIS - The Community Research and Development Information Service - as one of the most effective in proposing a future-oriented educational paradigm suitable for the rapid transformations of the present
The Department of Management at the University of Bologna participated in a European project, the outcomes of which were presented in Brussels and included a podcast, a role-playing game, service-learning activities and more
The project aims to restore native oyster and sabellariid reefs at the mouth of the Bevano stream
