Fourteen Italian voices within the Horizon 2020 Committee

Pubblicato il 02/08/2013Read time: 1 min

The Italian Minister for Education, University and Research, Maria Chiara Carrozza, appointed the national representatives for the Horizon 2020 Committee, with the aim of preparing our country to the new Framework Programme for European Research (2014-2020).

According to the Minister, an active and continuous presence of our representatives is necessary to get a quote of the funding that, at least, equals the Italian budgetary contribute to the Programme – something that did not happen in the FP7. Also, the whole national systems of research, innovation and of course politics have to offer their support. The Minister for Education, University and Research will be on the frontline in Bruxelles, to highlight the role of country with such a remarkable scientific and industrial tradition as Italy.

The fourteen Italian members of the Committee (seven men and seven women) are thus called to represent Italy in Europe, within their specific fields of expertise.

Imaginary portrait of a human researcher and their robot assistant

Researchers work with an increasing volume of scientific literature and ever more complex methodologies, and for this reason, they can rely on new support tools: Agent Laboratory, AgentRxiv, AI Scientist-v2, and Co-Scientist are AI-based systems designed to assist them in their work.

Research and development

The landscape of contemporary scientific research presents several significant challenges. On one hand, the growing specialization requires increasingly vertical expertise, while on the other, the need for interdisciplinary studies demands the ability to navigate through different domains of knowledge. This paradox puts pressure on researchers, who must balance depth and breadth in their investigations.
