Tor Vergata in Space
27 - 28 April - Villa Mondragone
Tor Vergata University of Rome has long been at the forefront of space-related research and innovation, weaving together scientific exploration, education, and public engagement across multiple departments. From cutting-edge technology to forward-thinking training programmes, its commitment to the space sector continues to expand in both scope and ambition.
Building on this momentum, three of the Tor Vergata's leading centres are joining forces to host "Tor Vergata in Space": the Centre for Space Biomedicine, coordinated by Myrka Zago; the Centre for Space Sustainability, led by Fabrizio Quadrini; and the Inter-University Centre for Microwave Engineering for Space Applications (MECSA), directed by Ernesto Limiti.
The event will take place on 27 and 28 April 2026 in the historic setting of Villa Mondragone, offering a vibrant platform for exchange and collaboration. Researchers from across the University will present their work through short talks and poster sessions, showcasing the breadth and depth of Tor Vergata's contributions to the space sector.
Alongside these presentations, the programme will feature contributions from representatives of major national and European institutions, including ASI, ESA, and the European Commission, as well as leading companies operating in the field.
Together, they will provide valuable insights into current challenges, opportunities, and future directions in space research and industry. The topics explored will range from groundbreaking scientific discoveries to technology transfer initiatives, from competitive research projects to meaningful collaborations with external partners.
The event will also highlight broader educational pathways, such as specialised master's programmes and advanced training courses, reflecting the University's commitment to shaping the next generation of space professionals.
"Tor Vergata in Space" is open to the entire academic community, inviting participation from anyone interested in exploring the ever-expanding frontier of space.
