Politecnico is at the top of the world rankings of universities also thanks to the frontier scientific research it carries out in its laboratories. The protagonists of this Italian record are the approximately 3,500 scientists and researchers of Politecnico. Among the hottest topics are obviously those related to the systemic transformation towards climate neutrality; and then, the world of digital, space exploration, life sciences, the movements embraced by the New European Bauhaus, the new frontiers in the study of matter... In particular, young researchers inject new life into the research system and grow innovative scientific strands. Politecnico invests in activities aimed precisely at encouraging young scientists of excellence to join in. Among many, this year we welcome twelve new young researchers who are among the best of their generation. They are here at Politecnico di Milano thanks to the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) fellowship programme. Let us introduce them... in alphabetical order.
EDOARDO BOCCHI deals with the analysis of partial differential equations arising in fluid mechanics and fluid-structure interactions. His research at Politecnico di Milano, as he explains, aims to improve understanding of infrastructure of current global interest through the mathematical analysis of two fluid-structure interaction problems: the stability of suspended bridges under wind action and the impact of ocean waves on oscillating water columns (OWC).
