An intelligent robotic walker has been created at UniTrento to help people with motor difficulties caused by serious neuro-cognitive disorders. Scientists are working to develop another prototype that will have other customizable functions and better interactivity. The project will benefit from Next Generation EU funds for the NRRP managed by the Inest consortium. A fundraising campaign has been launched to support the project

Martin Hanczyc of the Cibio Department has recently been awarded 6.5 million euros in European funding to conduct two studies on cancer. The goal of the research groups he coordinates is to create synthetic micro-organisms capable of detecting the presence of the disease and delivering anti-cancer therapies

The University of Trento has discovered a collection of molecular tools to rewrite DNA through an even more efficient and precise genome editing. Researchers are investigating the clinical development of a group of enzymes for sub-retinal injections. Their work has been published in Nature Communications

The goal is to create environmentally sustainable tyres, free from harmful substances. With almost 900,000 euros funding from the European Union, a team of researchers from the Department of Industrial Engineering will work on this project for the next two years
