Read time: 1 min

The Enterprise Europe Network, of which the University of Roma Tor Vergata is a member, organizes EEN Biotech and Bioeconomy Partnering  Event – IFIB  2013 (Naples, October 22nd-23rd 2013).

The international event is part of the workshop Italian Forum on  Industrial Biotechnology and Bioeconomy  (IFIB) 2013, organized by  Assobiotec (Italian Association for the development of biotechnologies), in collaboration with Innovhub – SSI, Italian Biocatalysis Center and the Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Craftmanship and Agricolture of Naples. 

  • IFIB 2013 aims to identify research projects in the field of industrial biotechnology in order to strengthen the Euro-Mediterranean network and the industry-university partnerships (for information: www.assobiotec.federchimica.it).
  • EEN Biotech and Bioeconomy Partnering  Event will encourage the dialogue between potential partners during predetermined individual meetings, with the aim of fostering new collaboration opportunities in range of commerce, technology transfer and research (for information: http://www.parcoscientifico.eu/node/541, for registration: http://www.b2match.eu/ifib2013).

Fields of interests: Industrial biotechnologies, including biocatalysts; environmental technologies; energy and biofuels; pharmaceutics; chemicals; food farming; marine biotechnologies. 

Both the events are free of charge. For any information, send a mail to: [email protected]

Why have neural networks won the Nobel Prizes in Physics and Chemistry?

This year, Artificial Intelligence played a leading role in the Nobel Prizes for Physics and Chemistry. More specifically, it would be better to say machine learning and neural networks, thanks to whose development we now have systems ranging from image recognition to generative AI like Chat-GPT. In this article, Chiara Sabelli tells the story of the research that led physicist and biologist John J. Hopfield and computer scientist and neuroscientist Geoffrey Hinton to lay the foundations of current machine learning.

The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to John J. Hopfield, an American physicist and biologist from Princeton University, and to Geoffrey Hinton, a British computer scientist and neuroscientist from the University of Toronto, for utilizing tools from statistical physics in the development of methods underlying today's powerful machine learning technologies.
