Research policies for a positive impact on society

Research policies were the focus of the event that took place on 18 January 2024 at the University of Siena, organized by the Research and Technology Transfer Division.

Two Sienese researchers shared their experience of participating in two information days held last November at two different institutions that promote research and its positive impact on society.

Professor Elena Casprini (Department of Business and Law) presented her visit to ISPRA’s Joint Research Center (JRC) in Varese, with the aim of creating synergies with the institute itself.
