E’ indetto pubblico concorso per l’ammissione ai corsi della Scuola di dottorato di ricerca – XXVI Ciclo – denominata “Life and Humanoid Technologies” (Tecnologie umanoidi e della vita). La Scuola, istituita d’intesa tra la Fondazione Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia e l’Università degli Studi di Genova, ha durata triennale.
Bando di concorso
La Scuola è articolata in 4 Corsi di dottorato:
1. Drug Discovery;
2. Nanosciences;
3. Neuroscience and Brain Technologies;
4. Robotics, Cognition and Interaction Technologies.
Dettagli su ogni Corso in particolare sugli obiettivi formativi e i Temi di Ricerca sono riportati rispettivamente negli allegati:
• Drug Discovery: A1;
• Nanosciences: A2;
• Neuroscience and Brain Technologies: A3;
• Robotics, Cognition and Interaction Technologies: A4.
Nella domanda è obbligatorio selezionare il Corso di Dottorato di interesse, nonché indicare il tema di ricerca al quale si desidera essere ammessi.
L’iscrizione online è disponibile dal 16 agosto alle ore 9.00 (ora italiana) al 24 settembre alle ore 12.00 (ora italiana).
Dipartimenti
- Advanced Robotics (Director: Darwin Caldwell) Advanced Robotics combines activities from both the hard (mechanical/ electrical design and fabrication, sensor systems, actuation development etc.) and soft (control, computer software, human factors etc) systems areas of robotics.
- Drug Discovery and Development (Director: Daniele Piomelli) Our team of basic scientists and experienced drug hunters works, in collaboration with private partners, to discover innovative drugs for chronic diseases such as pain, inflammation and dementia.
- Neuroscience and Brain Technologies (Director: Fabio Benfenati) The brain is still considered the best performing computation device known so far. It exhibits astonishing properties including highly complex and hierarchic organization, input integration, parallel computation, emergent properties, functional and structural adaptation (plasticity).
- Robotics, Brain and Cognitive Sciences (Director: Giulio Sandini) Consolidate the on-going research program on "human centred" systems along three main research streams: humanoid robotics with a focus on cognition, human behavioral studies with a focus on action and perception, human-machine communication and interaction with a strong emphasis on the technological and scientific advancement of bidirectional direct interface to the nervous systems.
- Telerobotics and Applications (Director: Jean-Guy Fontaine) Provide short term technology solutions to the increasing demand of automation and robotics worldwide.
Nanobiotech Facility e Laboratori

Le possibilità di sviluppo tecnologico offerte dalle attività iniziali, sono sostanzialmente potenziate mediante l'introduzione delle seguenti Piattaforme di Ricerca:
- Robotics:Robotics focused in all aspects of engineering (primarily electronics and mechanical) and computer science, strongly influenced (and influencing) developments in areas such as neuroscience, physiology, psychology, mathematics, physics, chemistry and biological science.
- Neuroscience:The Neuroscience platform at IIT are dedicated to investigating brain function at all levels – from molecules, synapses and neurons to large-scale, multi-areal neural circuits in the intact brain.
- Energy:Portable energy sources, plastic solar cells, energy harvesting, energy storage, energy scavenging, fuel cell technologies (descending from the Robotics platform. Relevant to self-powered technologies, and of wide international and industrial interest).
- EHS (Evironment, Health, Security):Interaction of nanosystems with biological entities, in pharmacology, therapies, and any other human environment (descending from the Neuroscience platform, the Pharmacology platform and from the nanobiotech facilities.
- Smart Materials: Lightweight nanocomposites, intelligent biocompatible surfaces, interface living systems/inorganic systems, textile/fiber engineering (descending from the Robotics platform and the nanobiotech facilities. Relevant for future non-metallic robots, and of wide international and industrial interest for environmentally friendly materials, biocompatible materials, new generation sensors, etc).
- D4 (Drug Discovery, Development and Diagnostics): An extension and a completion of the existing drug discovery development platform (pursued by the D3 department). In addition to the D3 activities, advanced diagnostic tools such as chip for genomic and proteomic analysis, nanocarrier for in vivo drug delivery will be developed.
- Integrated Multiscale Computational Technology: Developing world-class open source software for advanced modeling of complex systems of interest to the above platforms (eg density functional methods for modeling at the atomic scale systems relevant to the above platforms).
