FBK and the University of Padua together for research and development

Trento-based Fondazione Bruno Kessler and the University of Padua, which have been collaborating for years, have signed an agreement by which they will undertake synergetic actions in a number of areas of mutual interest, namely: network medicine; computational epidemiology and biology; artificial intelligence; cognitive ergonomics; complex systems; cybersecurity; digital industry, agriculture, health and psychology; health emergencies; human computer interaction; neuroscience and neuroinformatics; and computing and communications.

“In an increasingly interconnected world, where global challenges call for innovative and shared solutions, strategic partnerships are essential tools for pooling skills and resources, creating critical mass on crucial issues. The synergy between research centers and universities thus becomes a decisive junction also for enhancing the mobility of researchers, fostering a fruitful exchange of knowledge and expertise between the various institutions,” Fondazione Bruno Kessler President Ferruccio Resta, said.  “From this perspective, doctoral programs act as catalysts for the advanced training of researchers. By enhancing them through targeted collaborations, we can raise their quality and impact, with the aim of reaching the European average. With the new opportunities arising from PNRR investments, now is the right time to embark on bold and ambitious projects capable of triggering significant progress in areas of common interest”.
