The Niccolò Cusano University Foundation for Medical Research
As a consequence of Unicusano university’s goal of carrying out scientific research to find answers to questions for the general benefit of humanity, we also field research in medicine, and our commitment and dedication to this sphere of activity has led to the establishment of the Niccolò Cusano University Foundation for Medical Research.

“Unicusano Focus”: a weekly magazine for scientific and medical research
In line with Niccolò Cusano University’s support for biomedical research,as from November 10, 2015, a new weekly news-sheet called ‘Unicusano Focus: Sport and Scientific Research’ will appear every Tuesday as a free insert inside the newspaper Corriere dello Sport.

Major issues here in Italy include the importance of scientific research, the quality of life and the need to support people with disabilities. Niccolò Cusano University has decided to describe, encourage and champion such people through the readers of the news-sheet, relating the stories of families who are struggling with illnesses and the problems of disability, and what is being done for them by researchers and laboratories, generally unknown to the average person, but now brought into focus by the collaboration between Cusano and Corriere dello Sport. Niccolò Cusano University is therefore, along with the staff of Radio Cusano Campus, in the forefront of this important initiative, with the active support of all the teachers and researchers of the university.

 

Unicusano Lab: Mens, Ingenii, Verbum
A double page of news, called ‘Unicusano Lab: Mens, Ingenii, Verbum’ as from November 2015, is included every month in Auto Sprint and Moto Sprint. Fans of cars and motorbikes can discover the wonders of Engineering Research applied to these forms of transport. Items include current ideas and research projects, and those men and women of all ages whose lives have been changed for the better thanks to sport. Also, we take a look at the lives of people with disabilities and the wonderful volunteers who help them, as well as the work of companies who improve their lives with their products and technologies.

Unicusano Aurelia Swimming team
Goggles and cap on head, and eyes fixed on that rectangle of blue water: we’re talking about swimming, a sport for all ages, from babies to the elderly; a healthy activity by definition. Niccolò Cusano University has branched out into another sport as well as football, and has stretched out a hand to a famous Roman team which in 2016 has been in business for forty years, and is now the Unicusano Aurelia Swimming team. This is a combination that has the best of both – a sport that involves physical and mental effort to achieve results, and a university that is a hub of culture and teaching, and is passionately involved in education and research. Knowledge leads to personal emancipation, just like swimming
“Commitment is essential, since otherwise no result can be achieved; this does not mean breaking records, but simply improving your performance”. (Massimiliano Rosolino)
