Highlights
Rector Giovanni Molari Attends the Inauguration of the New Italian-Azerbaijani University Campus
The ceremony was held in the presence of the President of the Italian Republic, Sergio Mattarella, and the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev. This marks a new phase in the collaboration between the University of Bologna and ADA University, which has already led to the establishment of three bachelor’s degree programmes and one master’s degree programme in the fields of agricultural and food sciences.
Giovanni Domenico Cassini and the birth of the world’s longest sundial, in Bologna
The great astronomer, born 400 years ago, designed and built it inside the Basilica of San Petronio: officially to confirm the accuracy of the Gregorian calendar, but in reality, to seek answers to questions that, in the Papal States of 1655, were best left unspoken.

With this accreditation, certifying technical competence and high quality, the laboratory reaffirms its role as a key partner for the Judicial Authority in the fight against crime.
From research to society
There is a direct link between diet and vaginal microbiota health
A study involving over one hundred young women found that a high intake of animal proteins or alcohol is associated with an imbalance in the vaginal microenvironment. By contrast, a diet rich in fibre, starch, plant proteins, and omega-3 fatty acids supports a more stable and resilient microbiota. These findings open up new perspectives for preventing vaginal disorders, particularly in women prone to recurrence or during sensitive stages of life, such as pregnancy.
How to foster Investments in decarbonisation
At the heart of the new ERC project BELIEFS, led by Professor Emanuele Campiglio of the University of Bologna, is the issue of business expectations regarding ecological transition policies and how these influence their investment decisions. The project aims to create a tool that can provide reliable answers, thereby ensuring a rapid and orderly decarbonisation process.
