Led by Annalisa Bonafede, professor at the “Augusto Righi” Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Bologna, the ERC BELOVED project seeks to uncover the mechanisms behind the amplification of magnetic fields within galaxy clusters
Financed by the Italian Space Agency and carried out by the Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN) - TTLab (Technological Transfer Lab) in collaboration with the University of Bologna, the sensors can detect and transmit in real time the dose of ionising radiation received by the wearer to the Operations Centre, on the ground or at the Space Base, allowing the activation of an immediate alarm in case of overexposure
The Horizon Europe MINEYE project is developing new technologies to enhance the EU’s ability to access strategic metals and minerals, while also addressing environmental and social impacts. The University of Bologna is involved in both exploration efforts, as well as the management and monitoring of mineral residues
Accidentally found by a researcher from the University of Bologna, it was named Leprocaulon inexpectatum to emphasise the surprise of the discovery of a new species in one of the most polluted areas of Europe
Only one in five native plants survives in areas threatened by human activity. An international study of 5500 sites around the world reveals the invisible loss of nature
A multi-taxonomic analysis that considered 151 different species of small mammals, reptiles, birds, beetles, and lichens offers an overview of the situation, revealing potential threats to biodiversity in a sensitive geographical area where industrial and agricultural activities coexist with ecologically significant natural habitats
Thanks to the Alma Attrezzature Call, the “Toso Montanari” Department of Industrial Chemistry has acquired the new MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer. It enables analysis of all types of molecules, measuring their mass with exceptional precision
More than 200 training activities are entirely online, free, and open to all. Universities, institutions, and companies come together for the first Digital Education Hub for higher education, dedicated to Advanced Digital Culture in Italy, born within the framework of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR)
A new dataset from the ESA space telescope has been released. It includes the large-scale organisation of hundreds of thousands of galaxies along the cosmic web, along with the first classification of over 380,000 galaxies and 500 possible gravitational lenses
Conceived by the UniBoAT team from the Department of Industrial Engineering, the motor employs counter-rotating and tractor propellers—an innovative and sustainable solution for maritime transportation
The bacterial communities that live on tree canopies are fundamental to promote plant growth and their resistance to environmental stresses, but the effects of global change could alter this delicate balance
The new ESG4PMChange Erasmus + project, in which the Department of Management at the University of Bologna is involved, aims to enhance the integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations into training courses for professionals working in project management within organisations
Thanks to the Erasmus+ CBHE "GreenTraINT" Project Coordinated by Alma Mater, Academic Training and Practical Experience for Future Professionals in the Agri-Food, Livestock, and Biodiversity Conservation Sectors, Aiming for a More Sustainable Future
The tree is the defining feature of the Botanic Garden of Bologna, with its 32 metres in height and almost 5 metres in circumference. It has shown signs of ageing and a delicate balance with the surrounding environment: a group of scholars from the University of Bologna will take care of it thanks to a unique research initiative in Europe
NanoFenretinide, a formulation developed by a research group from the University of Bologna, has shown promising results against diffuse midline glioma, a tumour affecting children between the ages of 5 and 10
