ERC Synergy: the University of Bologna is among the leaders of the European Research of Excellence

With four projects and total funding of 11 million euros, the University of Bologna is the Italian university with the highest number of grant holders in the latest ERC Synergy Grants and one of the most successful in the European Union. From the cohabitation between humans and animals on an increasingly fragile planet to the earliest microseconds after the Big Bang; from the ultra-fast processes of the photochemical reactions to the unsolved questions on the universe expansion, the participating researchers will join their forces to address some of the most complex challenges in contemporary science.
