These Programs aim to bridge the gap between environmental processes and economic impacts, developing holistic solutions to climate challenges. Through interdisciplinary collaboration and pioneering research, they strive to advance sustainable development and enhance resilience in a rapidly changing climate.

The Marsili Fellowship for Junior scientists

is designed to harness your expertise and creativity to advance globally relevant topics. This award will enable you to pursue your scientific interests, gain access to world-class facilities, and build a robust network, all while enhancing your professional prestige. The fellowship encourages interdisciplinary collaboration, allowing you to engage with diverse perspectives and gain strategic insights into complex global challenges. Our collaborative environment will support you in maximizing your impact and achieving your full potential. By leveraging cutting-edge resources and engaging in impactful projects, you will advance your research, elevate your career, and establish yourself as a rising leader in your field.

Luigi Ferdinando Marsili (1658–1730) was an Italian scientist and diplomat who laid the foundation for modern hydrology and marine science. As a member of the Royal Society and founder of the Institute of Sciences in Bologna, he combined scientific inquiry with a deep understanding of European politics. Marsili's legacy remains a symbol of the curiosity and interdisciplinary spirit of the scientific revolution of his era.

The Bassi Fellowship for Senior scientists

brings together some of the world’s most distinguished scientists and leaders, selected for their outstanding achievements and significant contributions in academic and research institutions, government, multilateral and nonprofit organizations. As a Senior fellow, you will mentor emerging leaders, drive key initiatives, focus on strategic advice and leadership development. During your residency, you will work alongside CMCC leading researchers, cultivating a dynamic environment for the exchange of groundbreaking ideas and innovative solutions to complex challenges. This collaboration will facilitate connections with a diverse network of top researchers, creating a vibrant, interdisciplinary community committed to advancing knowledge and pushing the frontiers of science.

Laura Bassi (1711–1778) was an Italian physicist and the first woman in the world to earn a professorship in physics at a university. Appointed to the University of Bologna in 1732, she taught for over 40 years challenging the norms of her time by conducting public experiments and lectures. Bassi’s legacy remains a symbol of the transformative impact of the Enlightenment era, paving the way for future generations in science.
