On March 10th 2026, the conference I Linguaggi dell’Accessibilità e la Fruizione Ampliata del Patrimonio Culturale (The Languages of Accessibility and the Inclusive Enjoyment of Cultural Heritage) was held at the Department of Humanities of the University of Macerata. The event aimed at offering a day of study by providing analytical insights and opportunities for reflection on the many issues connected to the enhancement and valorization of Cultural Heritage sites, especially in relation to disabilities

Wildfires, windstorms, and outbreaks of wood-boring insects such as bark beetles are increasingly affecting European forests, altering their structure and reducing the ecosystem services they provide. A new international study published in Science, involving the Institute for Agricultural and Forestry Systems in the Mediterranean of the National Research Council of Italy, provides the most comprehensive assessment to date of how forest disturbances in Europe may evolve through 2100 under different climate scenarios

Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (CNR), the national research council of Italy, has joined the early adopter program for Web of Science Research Intelligence from Clarivate, an agentic AI-native platform developed in partnership with the global research community. The platform provides institutions with a unified, evidence-based view of research activity by connecting trusted, publisher-neutral data across publications, patents, grants, policy documents, clinical trials and other research outputs
