Highlights
New agri-food infrastructure: shaping the future at the University of Bologna
The University of Bologna has inaugurated new research infrastructures dedicated to equipment and machinery for precision agriculture, digital systems and innovative solutions for the sustainability of agricultural systems. Over €12 million in investments from PNRR funds, within the national AGRITECH project, will support the testing and development of the agriculture of the future.
The Rector Giovanni Molari at the annual conference of the European University Association: the role of universities in addressing demographic challenges
In Turkey, his contribution on the impact of the demographic crisis on European universities.
Palazzo Poggi hosts the exhibition on Bologna FC’s student players
Who brought the first football to Bologna? Who introduced the club’s red-and-blue colours? Staged in the heart of the University, the exhibition traces the pivotal role played by students in bringing football to Bologna, from the earliest matches, featuring “a handful of madmen chasing a ball” on the Prati di Caprara, to the foundation and early triumphs of Bologna FC.

From research to society
Rising temperatures affect sex ratio at birth
A large-scale survey of five million births in 33 countries in sub-Saharan Africa and India shows that exposure to high temperatures during pregnancy increases the risk of miscarriage, particularly for male foetuses.
The blockchain paradox and a new idea of “trust” in digital ecosystems
In the new digital systems that make it possible to record information in a secure, transparent and unalterable way, trust is not eliminated, but reconfigured through technological protocols, governance mechanisms and relationships between the various actors involved.
Alpine ibex and climate change: new findings from prehistoric archaeology
A new multidisciplinary study, led by researchers at Unibo, Unimore and MUSE – the Trento Museum of Science, has reconstructed the evolutionary history and relationship with the environment of a population of Alpine ibex (Capra ibex) that lived in the mountains of Trentino more than 13,000 years ago.
