Programma di formazione su Horizon Europe: opportunità di finanziamento, presentazione di proposte e gestione delle sovvenzioni
04/03/2026 05/03/2006
This 8-hour training programme is designed specifically for PhD students who wish to understand and engage with Horizon Europe, the European Union’s flagship research and innovation funding programme. The course introduces doctoral candidates to the structure, priorities, and funding instruments of Horizon Europe, helping them position their research within European funding strategies and collaborative networks. Participants will learn how to identify relevant calls, interpret work programmes, and understand evaluation criteria such as excellence, impact, and implementation. The training will provide practical guidance on contributing to proposal writing, building international consortia, and navigating the submission process through the Funding & Tenders Portal. In addition, the course will introduce the fundamentals of grant management, including budgeting principles, eligible costs, reporting requirements, dissemination and communication obligations, and research ethics considerations. By the end of the programme, PhD students will have a clearer understanding of how Horizon Europe works, greater confidence in engaging with proposal development processes, and increased awareness of the skills required to participate in and support EU-funded research projects.

Leggi di scala nei sistemi sociali viventi
2026/02/19
Scaling laws are ubiquitous in mechanics, from material strength to turbulence. These laws describe system behavior via power-laws, connecting specific properties to size. While foundational in physics, recent studies have identified scaling laws in living social systems that currently lack rigorous mechanistic understanding. Toward a methodology for unveiling the underpinnings of these complex systems, we tackle two distinct problems. First, we examine the scaling of metabolic rate in insect colonies, measured in the laboratory. Grounded in a "reverse social contagion" hypothesis, we establish an experimentally validated compartmental model for colony energy savings. Second, we analyze firearm prevalence across U.S. cities—a much less structured scenario where only ecological data are available. Using multidimensional data, we demonstrate the possibility of informing plausible modeling hypotheses through causal discovery and, consequently, formulating network-theoretic models.

Sfide per una logistica urbana sostenibile
2025/10/16
In an era of increasing digitalization and the dynamically growing e-commerce industry, the CEP sector plays a special role, creating the final link in the supply chain, directly connecting customers with producers of goods. The annual turnover of the e-commerce industry in Poland is €226 billion, representing 9% of retail trade, 78% of internet users shopping online, creating huge stream of cargo. Customers expects courier companies to deliver this stream of goods in the most comfortable and possibly quickest way directly to their hands. Most of the courier companies are the international organizations committed to implementing the Sustainable Development Goals by applying the concepts of sustainable logistics, corporate social responsibility, and the circular economy. The implementation of these goals is achieved through managing the process of technological and organizational change within the company at all levels of the organizational structure. The presentation will introduce the daily practice of operation in urban logistics and last mile delivery solutions in Poland, as well as the strategic directions for the industry's development, with an emphasis on implementing sustainable logistics solutions. The first part of the presentation will focus on building a sustainable supply chain by implementing environmentally neutral delivery methods and solutions, developing IT tools, and creating a delivery network that supports the reduction of logistics operations and pollution emission. The second part will focus on the process of implementing electric delivery vehicles into regional fleets operating in cities. The process of managing this change will be discussed from an organizational perspective – redefining the rules for cooperation with subcontractors and changing the structure of operational departments; from an administrative perspective – the obligation to meet legal requirements related to electromobility; and from an infrastructural perspective – the need to build and operate charging stations, adapt IT systems, and select the technical parameters of the vehicle fleet to fit the local delivery network

Convegno Tech Transfer Day: RICADUTE INDUSTRIALI DEL TRASFERIMENTO TECNOLOGICO NEL ROME TECHNOPOLE
2024/11/14
The conference, part of the Rome Technopole initiatives, aims to explore and deepen the role of Technology Transfer in the regional innovation ecosystem. Technology Transfer is an activity focused on the exchange of knowledge, especially between research and industry. The primary objective of this activity is to transform research findings into products and processes suitable for commercialization by companies, thus supporting the growth of corporate competitiveness. In a historical context characterized by significant innovations, especially in the fields of Energy Transition, Digital Transition, and Health & Bio-Pharmaceuticals, Technology Transfer management plays a central role, acting as a lever for business innovation. By providing companies with the tools necessary for the development of new products, services, or production processes, it is essential to address the changing dynamics and needs of a constantly evolving market and society. Therefore, Technology Transfer not only facilitates the integration of the latest scientific research into the industrial fabric, but also constitutes a crucial element for companies' adaptation to changing and competitive landscapes. However, Technology Transfer, by its very nature, is intrinsically complex, involving a multitude of technical elements, social factors, and interaction mechanisms throughout the entire process of knowledge transition from science to industrial application. Therefore, examining its dynamics offers an opportunity to explore and understand the mutual influence between the actors involved (academic, industrial, or governmental). This analysis allows us to delineate the process variables, providing a clearer vision of the synergies and challenges that emerge in the transition of scientific knowledge to the practical and applied context of industry. The Conference on Technology Transfer, part of the Rome Technopole's activities, aims to provide an opportunity for reflection and debate to explore the challenges and opportunities associated with this complex activity, promoting knowledge sharing and the development of innovative strategies.

Qualitative interviews. Modeling and simulation. Developing process theory with narratives (and secondary data).
2022, December 12 13 14
Focusing on two articles related to design and servitization, this session will describe the process of devising a research topic for doctoral research and particularly illustrate how topics can be combined to generate an original contribution. The empirical work reported comes from a multiple case study and an in-depth single case study, enabling comparison and discussion of these strategies, their philosophical as well as practical implications. The session can also introduce participants to the peer review process, using these two key papers, published almost a decade apart. The session will offer a non-technical exploration of system dynamics and hybrid modelling, illustrated through articles that develop a strategic vision and an operational plan to achieve it. The articles consider new technologies (heat pumps and 3D printing respectively) from the perspective of user adoption, business models and supply chains. Both use simulation to examine how proposed benefits can be achieved. From a theoretical perspective the session examines the gap between expected and realised value. The findings encourage reflection on how to make the expectations realistic. From a practical perspective these articles showcase applications and combinations of simulation methods to consider strategic and operational aspects longitudinally. The session demonstrates examples of process theories, which require a longitudinal perspective and in-depth explanations of phenomena and their interactions. In both cases, a narrative approach is used to ‘tell a story’ of how complex interactions take place over time. The session also demonstrates how secondary data, including patent citations, annual reports, press releases and other sources can be used to generate insights, along with the pitfalls and implications on reliability and validity of research.
