A study published in Nature Food by the Politecnico di Milano and University of Milan suggests that changing animal feed by using agricultural by-products can reduce the consumption of land and water resources. By substituting energy-intensive crops with by-products, significant savings in resources can be achieved, leading to more sustainable agricultural systems.

Cuprate Superconductors Strange Behavior Explained by New Study on Nature Communications - Politecnico di Milano, Chalmers University of Technology, Sapienza Università di Roma
Public incentives to finance privately owned negative emissions technologies by integrating them into a single carbon market increase economic inequality of climate policies, which could double in a 1.5°C global warming scenario. New research from Politecnico di Milano published in Nature Climate Change proposes alternatives to mitigate this effect.
Researchers from the Politecnico di Milano and Ca' Foscari University of Venice are part of the team unravelling the causes of the degradation of cadmium yellow, used by the Spanish painter: the presence of zinc in the crystalline matrix of the pigment, the production process and the environmental conditions in which paint was stored. The research is published in the scientific journal Heritage Sc

Aircraft capable of changing their shape during different flight conditions, addressing two of the most important challenges for the future of sustainable aviation: weight reduction and increased efficiency. These are the challenges of the NABUCCO research project by Professor Chiara Bisagni from the Department of Aerospace Science and Technology at Politecnico di Milano.
Students from Politecnico di Milano have won the Sustainable Hospitality Challenge, an international competition organised by Hotelschool The Hague with the support of NEOM.
The results of the iHEART project have been published in the prestigious journal Nature Scientific Reports.
A new scientific research published in the prestigious journal "Science Advances" has examined therapy-induced senescence in tumor cells.
The attractiveness of new hydropower is decreasing fast, both due to the increasing economic competitiveness of solar panels and to the increasingly uncertain effects of climate change on river flows. The majority of new dams proposed across Africa should, therefore, probably never be built, suggests a new study published in Science.
The University has always focused on the quality and innovation of its teaching and research, developing a fruitful relationship with business and productive world by means of experimental research and technological transfer.
Research has always been linked to didactics and it is a priority commitment which has allowed Politecnico Milano to achieve high quality results at an international level as to join the university to the business world. Research constitutes a parallel path to that formed by cooperation and alliances with the industrial system.
Knowing the world in which you are going to work is a vital requirement for training students. By referring back to the needs of the industrial world and public administration, research is facilitated in following new paths and dealing with the need for constant and rapid innovation. The alliance with the industrial world, in many cases favored by Fondazione Politecnico and by consortiums to which Politecnico belong, allows the university to follow the vocation of the territories in which it operates and to be a stimulus for their development.
The challenge which is being met today projects this tradition which is strongly rooted in the territory beyond the borders of the country, in a relationship which is developing first of all at the European level with the objective of contributing to the creation of a single professional training market. Politecnico takes part in several research, sites and training projects collaborating with the most qualified European universities. Politecnico's contribution is increasingly being extended to other countries: from North America to Southeast Asia to Eastern Europe. Today the drive to internationalization sees Politecnico Milano taking part into the European and world network of leading technical universities and it offers several courses beside many which are entirely taught in English.
