Research
Research projects, activities and opportunitiesFor us, research is a fundamental element for social and economic development, contributing to progress, wellbeing and social cohesion.
This is why the University of Verona supports quality interdisciplinary research, international collaborations and the sharing of results to benefit our society, culture and economy.
Departments and research
The University of Verona stands out for its commitment to cutting-edge scientific research, both basic and applied, across a wide range of disciplines.
Research is organized into four major areas, each consisting of departments focused on specific fields. Specifically, the University offers:
- 3 departments in Humanities
- 3 departments in Law and Economics
- 4 departments in Life and Health Sciences
- 3 departments in Natural Sciences and Engineering (with one shared with the Life Sciences area)
This structure fosters a multidisciplinary and innovative research environment, making the University of Verona a key player in scientific and academic development.

Environmental Impacts of Data Centers and Criminal Law Responses: A Comparative Perspective
The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in recent years has undeniably generated significant benefits for society across a wide range of fields. At the same time, however, it has raised concerns regarding the environmental impact associated with data centers, particularly in relation to mineral extraction, the construction and maintenance of data center facilities, the extensive use of water for cooling purposes, and the consumption of energy derived from non-renewable sources, whi...
Increased risk of early recurrence after gross-total resection in males with a WHO grade II meningioma: the impact of sex on recurrence and death in 5441 meningioma patients
Objective: Sex is a recognized factor in meningioma development, but its effect on recurrence and survival remains insufficiently studied in large clinical cohorts. This study aimed to investigate sex-specific differences in recurrence and survival across WHO grade I-III meningiomas, focusing primarily on outcomes after gross-total resection (GTR). Secondary analyses investigated outcomes after subtotal resection. Methods: Patients with intracranial meningiomas (n = 5441) from the international ...
Sodium Ions Affect GPR17 Conformational States and Functionality
Sodium is an allosteric modulator of several class-A GPCR regulating active versus inactive conformation state and may be a critical issue for the optimization of crystallization procedures. Herein, the role of Na+ in the regulation of GPR17 conformational states was studied through MD simulations of GPR17 wild-type and mutated on two different residues relevant for sodium interaction (D77A and D293N), in inactive and active conformations. We observed that Na+ stabilizes the inactive wild-type c...
Alpha-synuclein-decorated nanoconjugates targeting alpha-synuclein assembly
Alpha-synuclein (alpha S) is a neuronal protein implicated in synaptic regulation, whose pathological aggregation is a hallmark of synucleinopathies, including Parkinson's disease. Despite its physiological importance, its intrinsically disordered nature and conformational plasticity complicate both mechanistic understanding and therapeutic targeting. Here, we investigate the use of protein-functionalized nanoparticles (NPs) as tools to modulate and probe alpha S assembly pathways, including agg...
?1 integrin cross-linking inhibits CD16-induced phospholipase D and secretory phospholipase A2 activity and granule exocytosis in human NK cells: Role of phospholipase D in CD16-triggered degranulation
Recent data indicate that integrin-generated signals can modulate different receptor-stimulated cell functions in both a positive (costimulation) and a negative (inhibition) fashion. Here we investigated the ability of beta 1 integrins, namely alpha 4 beta 1 and alpha 5 beta 1 fibronectin receptors, to modulate CD16-triggered phospholipase activation in human NK cells. beta 1 integrin simultaneous cross-linking selectively inhibited CD16-induced phospholipase D (PLD) activation, without affectin...

Networking e InternazionalizzazioneL'ateneo promuove la presenza di ricercatori e docenti internazionali per attività di didattica e di ricerca attraverso specifici finanziamenti per la mobilità in ingresso degli ospiti internazionali.
Un Visiting Professor è un docente o ricercatore di alto livello proveniente da un'istituzione straniera, invitato per un periodo limitato a svolgere attività accademiche.
Annualmente vengono pubblicati i bandi "Visiting" ricompresi all'interno del Programma di internazionalizzazione di ateneo che finanziano soggiorni di ricerca e/o di didattica a Verona, oltre che l'attribuzione di interi insegnamenti a docenti internazionali. Inoltre, i Dipartimenti dispongono di appositi finanziamenti, finalizzati ad accrescere la dimensione internazionale della didattica all'interno dei Corsi di studio, anche attraverso la partecipazione di docenti provenienti da atenei europei ed extra-europei.
