Obtained from a single day of observations, the first snapshots are at least four times sharper than those obtained with terrestrial telescopes and cover large portions of the sky at an unparalleled depth
Combining the tools of climate science with those of volcanology, a group of scholars has shown that the period of increased rainfall recorded between late 2017 and 2018 coincided with a strong reduction in gas emissions from the Pozzuoli Solfatara, contributing to the increase in seismic activity recorded the following year
The University of Bologna, ART-ER, and Bonfiglioli Riduttori are participating in a European project aimed at developing an exoskeleton for tasks involving heavy lumbar loads, with weights ranging from 10 to 25 kilograms
Patented by the University of Bologna, the fabric can be used to remove synthetic and natural paints from paintings, sculptures, archaeological finds, archival material or films. Within minutes, the solvent interacts with the layer to be removed, causing it to swell and become absorbed into the fabric itself.
An international study, coordinated by the University of Bologna and the IRCCS - Policlinico Sant’Orsola Hospital, has discovered that a growth factor belonging to the bone morphogenetic protein family acts as a powerful promoter of cardiac muscle cell regeneration. The results offer potential new therapeutic strategies for heart regeneration
The analysis of the remains of the Theatine cleric regular, who lived in Naples between the mid-16th and early 17th centuries, combined with the study of historical sources has made it possible to document the presence of this type of pressure injury that can occur before death
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
