the research The project consists of an integrated theoretical and experimental program aimed at addressing open problems in quantum mechanics and its unification with gravity. The research focuses on analyzing the spin-statistics connection and the spontaneous collapse of the wave function, employing advanced atomic physics techniques across a series of experiments that leverage cutting-edge technologies. […]

the research Conventional radiotherapy, which is currently widespread, could undergo a substantial change. It has been shown that administering a specific dose over a very short time increases the treatment’s effectiveness while reducing damage to healthy tissue and limiting the onset of side effects, such as secondary tumours. This phenomenon is called the Flash effect. […]

the research The project aims to develop new photonic systems primarily for the purpose of creating innovative optical computing machines capable of overcoming the limitations of traditional computing machines. The experimental activity explores the use of laser light and its interaction with complex photonic media to accelerate the solution of combinatorial optimization problems and to […]

the research The NQN (Quantitative Neuroscience and Neuroimaging) project is dedicated to exploring the dynamics of brain function through a combined approach of quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and advanced computational models. Our research focuses on how information processing at the cerebral cortex level is linked to the energy consumption that supports it and the […]

Head of Research Line la ricerca This project explores the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) through an interdisciplinary approach that integrates computer science, network science, economics, and sociology. On one hand, we study the limitations and potential of AI to understand social, technological, and economic dynamics; on the other, we apply these models to […]

the research The CREF-Sony Joint Initiative (JICS) represents a pioneering collaboration between a public institution and a corporate research laboratory, combining science, arts, and public engagement to foster innovation and address global challenges. The initiative focuses on three core projects aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): Sustainable Cities Ongoing transformations in our cities require […]
