Projects

NFFA-DI is the NFFA upgrade proposal for realizing a Full-Spectrum Italian Research Infrastructure for nanoscience and nanotechnology.

The aim of PRP is the upgrade of CERIC-ERIC Research Infrastructure to an integrated digital facility for the study of pathogens, providing to scientific and industrial users the instruments for tackling emerging human, animal and vegetal pathogens of health and economic concern.

NQSTI is a consortium funded under PNRR. Its goals are to team up Italian entities carrying out competitive and innovative research in the field of quantum science and technology (QST), and to stimulate future industrial innovation in this field, providing a forum in which novel ideas and opportunities are transferred to companies. CNR-IOM participates in Spoke3 (Atomic, Molecular Platform for Quantum Technologies) and Spoke6 (Integration).

The National Center for Gene Therapy and Drugs based on RNA Technology is one of the five National Centres established by PNRR. CNR-IOM participates in Spoke7: Biocomputing.

NEST aims to connect the main national research bodies in order to develop technologies for the conversion and use of renewable sources. CNR-IOM participates in Spoke4: Clean Hydrogen and Final Uses.

The National Centre for HPC, Big Data and Quantum Computing is one of the five National Centres established by PNRR. CNR-IOM participates in Spoke7: Materials & Molecular Sciences.

Ecosystem for Innovation, Digitisation and Sustainability for the Diffuse Economy in Central Italy. CNR-IOM participates in Spoke9 (Nanomaterials) and in Spoke10 (Biomaterials).

NFFA-EUROPE PILOT (NEP) aims at expanding and consolidating the operation of a Interoperable Distributed Research Infrastructure for Nanoscience supporting research on materials and functional systems at the nanoscale and at the microscale.

The EU-funded MAGNELIQ project will develop a new liquid material, a ME liquid, and novel sensors that could be used in human-like devices from robotics to prostheses.

The aim of this proposal is to bring together on European scale, and open up facilities for a) testing both ground and space-based technologies in an environment representative of space conditions, b) exploiting data, and c) computational modelling.

EOSC-Pillar gathers representatives of the fast-growing national initiatives for coordinating data infrastructures and services in Italy, France, Germany, Austria and Belgium. The project aims to propose the initiatives for the national coordination of data infrastructures and service recently started in many Member States as one of the founding pillars for the development and long-term sustainability of the EOSC.

Our goal is to establish the foundations of a radically new solid state platform for scalable quantum computation, based on Andreev qubits. To carry out this research program, we rely on the instrumental combination of experimentalists, theorists and material growers, together having the necessary expertise on all aspects of the proposed research.

Developing a network of research centres and parks with a nano-technological vocation focused on promoting technology transfer. The network, aimed at businesses, will offer access to enabling technologies and contribute to creating a new culture of innovation, through a programme of targeted open events, a consultancy service, and feasibility studies, responding to the needs expressed by individual businesses and stimulating the creation of new products, markets and businesses.

MAX (MAterials design at the eXascale) is a European Centre of Excellence which enables materials modelling, simulations, discovery and design at the frontiers of the current and future High Performance Computing (HPC), High Throughput Computing (HTC) and data analytics technologies.

The Quantum Flagship was launched in 2018 as one of the largest and most ambitious research initiatives of the European Union. With a budget of at least €1 billion and a duration of 10 years, the flagship brings together research institutions, academia, industry, enterprises, and policy makers, in a joint and collaborative initiative on an unprecedented scale.

Il progetto mira a sviluppare un approccio innovativo per la terapia ed il trattamento personalizzato del Glioblastoma (GBM), uno dei tumori più aggressivi a carico del cervello umano. Le cure attualmente disponibili purtroppo non sono in grado di sradicare completamente la neoplasia, caratterizzata da una forte natura invasiva e dalla capacità di sviluppare una certa resistenza ai normali trattamenti post-operatori. I partner, attraverso l’unione delle diverse competenze scientifiche e tecnologiche, svilupperanno ed integreranno tecniche sperimentali e computazionali innovative, con la finalità di individuare un’efficace sistema di contrasto alla malattia. Partendo dallo studio delle cellule di Glioblastoma (GSC) e con il supporto di un’evoluta piattaforma tecnologica integrata da sviluppare nel corso del progetto, verranno implementati innovativi metodi di analisi, valutazione e cura, da confrontare con i sistemi attualmente impiegati in ambito terapeutico.

The main objective of EUSMI is to provide an interdisciplinary infrastructure for soft matter research to support about 300 advanced projects in four years.

Nanowires (NWs) exhibit unique properties that make them potential building blocks for a variety of next generation NanoElectronics devices. INDEED will train young ESRs to become experts with a unique skill set that includes interdisciplinary scientific techniques, industrial experience through R&D secondments and innovative design skills.

AntibiOttica si prefigge l’ambizione di superare lo stato dell’arte, limitatamente al riconoscimento ad alla classificazione delle specie cellulari (limitatamente in questo progetto a batteri e leucociti) presenti in un campione di fluido biologico umano, combinando diverse spettroscopie ottiche, tra loro complementari. La combinazione di diffrazione coerente, spettroscopia Raman e infrarosso fornisce una impronta unica di ogni specie batterica rilevante ai fini sanitari. L’identificazione di tale impronta premetterà una diagnosi precoce ed accurata di infezioni batteriche e la determinazione del miglior trattamento antibiotico.

The goal of the MIR-BOSE project is to demonstrate novel intersubband optoelectronic devices operating in the strong coupling regime between light and matter. Ultimately, we aim at demonstrating an intersubband polariton laser. These new sources have the potential to impact a range of technologies and applications in the mid-IR and THz frequency ranges.

NFFA-EUROPE will implement the first open-access research infrastructure as a platform supporting comprehensive projects for multidisciplinary research at the nanoscale extending form synthesis to nanocharacterization to theory and numerical simulation.

Open access for national and international users to state-of-the-art nanoscience tools for the growth, characterization and advanced spectroscopy of materials, at Elettra synchrotron radiation and FERMI free electron laser facilities. NFFA-Trieste is exclusively dedicated to research projects that involve the integrated use of more than one technique in the nanoscience research. There are no deadlines and proposals are accepted and evaluated without interruption.
