NEW Program
ISSNAF Research Interaction Opportunities - (IRIO - 10)
A major objective of ISSNAF is to promote research interactions among students and scholars in North America and Italy. An effective mechanism to further this program is the creation of fellowships. The areas of interest include Economic and Social Sciences, Environmental Sciences, Engineering and Information Sciences, Humanities, Medicine and Biology, and Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics.
To this end, ISSNAF is developing a database where topics of existing or potential collaboration are identified. The database will be visible on the web site. The database will also be used by ISSNAF to raise funds for the fellowships from the private and public sectors in Italy and in North America. More...
ISSNAF encourages Italian and North American Researchers interested in the Program to post their research projects using this Form. |

 As Britain's QS-Times Higher Education part ways with each other, new alliances replace old associations and new initiatives debut in the University ranking arena — CHERPA, the consortium funded by the European Commission and AHELO (the Assessment of Higher Education Learning Outcomes), sponsored by the OECD, are both scheduled for implementation in 2011. While CHERPA network aims to be the European alternative to the China's Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Britain's QS-Times Higher Education models, AHELO “ is not a university ranking like the Shanghai Jiao Tong, the Times Higher Education or any number of others,” rather, according its promoters, pursues the assessment of “learning outcomes” through measures arguably valid for all cultures and languages, in defense of “the diversity of higher education” — looking at the new players, “competition is a good thing,” comments Quaquarelli (QS) who, after parting with THE, is still keeping his grip in the games.

 The volume edited by Roberto Satolli — “Milano capitale della salute-ospedali, ricerca, industria, società civile” (2010) — offers an in-depth reflection on Milano’s experience with public health at its core, following a sweeping historical timeline from the Renaissance to the present. A number of protagonists and experts from health-related fields describe how Milano achieved its leading role, and also frame current challenges. The absence of a question mark from the title is seemingly deliberate, but there is work to be done to keep it that way.
