The Università degli Studi di Genova (www.unige.it) and the Italian Institute of Technology (www.iit.it) have made an agreement for a 3-year PhD School in Robotics, Neurosciences and Nanotechnologies.
The Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) is a research institution in Italy that is currently in an advanced start-up phase. The fellowships assigned by IIT to the University of Genova are part of the start-up strategy of the Institute and have the specific goal of forming the first generation of IIT’s research fellows.
