CUDAM - Centro Universitario Datazioni Milano Bicocca

CUDAM is a joint research center of  4 Departments of the University of Milano Bicocca:

  • Department of Physics “G. Occhialini”
  • Department of Informatics, Systems and Communication
  • Department of Materials Science 
  • Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences

 

Aim of the CUDAM is the promotion of studies and researches on dating and archaeometric techniques in the fields of geology, environmental science and cultural heritage.
Available dating techniques are Thermoluminescence, Optically Stimulated Luminescence, Dendrochronology and Radiocarbon.
Further researches are devoted to Isotopic Dating Techniques, Characterization of Archaeomaterials, Information Technologies for Cultural Heritage
CUDAM is  directed by  Prof. Igor Villa.
The Archaeometry Dating Laboratories, directed by Prof. Marco Martini, deputy director of CUDAM, are located in the Department of Materials Science.

The Bicocca Quantum Technologies interdepartmental Center (BiQuTe) has three objectives to pave the way for a positive impact of Quantum Technologies (QT) on industry and society:

  • Develop new skills and roles in QT;
  • Expand education programmes in QT;
  • Increase open innovation in the QT area between universities and companies.

With these objectives in mind, BiQuTe aims to create an interdepartmental research and development infrastructure that on the one hand provides instrumental support for multidisciplinary (Physics, Material Sciences, Computer Sciences) and coordinated frontier research in the field of QT and on the other hand constitutes a space for interaction and intellectual synergy to stimulate new applied research in contiguous areas (Biology, Medicine, Environmental Sciences), in related areas (Economics, Sociology), and for technology transfer with the Lombardy manufacturing reality. The Center also aims to be an important platform for both Master and PhD training, making available advanced QT infrastructures in both fundamental and applied research.

The Center currently has about 50 affiliated members belonging to the the participating Departments:

The Center is based at the Department of Physics “G. Occhialini”. The scientific committee which coordinates the activity of the center is composed by:
