The scientific foundation of LaDIS
LaDIS builds upon a strong interdisciplinary foundation that combines artificial intelligence, data analytics, human-computer interaction, and biomedical research. Our scientific approach emphasizes the integration of innovative computational methods with real-world health and social challenges, ensuring that our research is both technically rigorous and socially impactful.
Reseach Groups
LaDIS is structured around four specialized research groups that together represent a broad spectrum of scientific expertise—from biomedical engineering and theoretical physics to atmospheric sciences and advanced instrumentation. These teams collaborate across disciplines to address complex challenges in health, sustainability, and technology. By combining fundamental research with practical innovation, they contribute to the development of novel therapies, precision diagnostics, environmental monitoring systems, and cutting-edge scientific tools.
Bioforge
BIOFORGE develops smart biomaterials based on recombinant proteins. Their work opens new pathways in regenerative medicine, 3D printing, drug delivery and biomedical devices.
ERICA
ERICA specialises in high-precision spectroscopy and sensing technologies. Their instruments are part of international space missions, but their impact reaches Earth through applications in diagnostics, environmental monitoring and beyond.
GOA
GOA leads research in atmospheric optics, using advanced sensing to study aerosols, solar radiation and cloud dynamics. Their data informs climate models, air quality systems and renewable energy strategies.
Mathphys
MATHPHYS investigates the foundations of reality and applies them to new technologies. Their research spans relativity, quantum communications, sensor design, cosmological models, and systems biology.
