IUSS On Air – Sharing Ideas
IUSS On Air – Sharing Ideas is a digital format created by the IUSS School for Advanced Studies Pavia to inform, disseminate knowledge, and foster understanding. It was conceived and launched during the historical moment of the pandemic.
With IUSS On Air, the School aims to provide a space for discussion and in-depth analysis, leveraging the expertise of its community to help decode the scientific, social, and human complexity we are experiencing.
Starting on April 3, 2020, and in the following weeks, IUSS offered a series of short videos featuring contributions from its professors, researchers, and students. The initiative was designed primarily to provide an additional tool to face the COVID-19 emergency, offering a critical and informed perspective on some of the most delicate aspects of the situation.
Through scientific and cultural insights, the School not only maintained and strengthened dialogue within its community but also engaged the wider public, providing points for reflection and discussion. Exploiting the highly multidisciplinary nature of its research and expertise – from engineering and risk management to medicine and cognitive neuroscience, from psychology to linguistics and philosophy – IUSS offered diverse perspectives for understanding the present.
“What we are experiencing in these months,” said Professor Andrea Sereni, Vice-Rector for the Third Mission, IUSS Pavia, “is an extremely challenging moment for everyone. The necessary containment measures due to the epidemiological emergency have radically changed our habits and the way we manage personal relationships, which are essential for our private and social lives. In this situation, where discouragement is always a risk, the academic community must more than ever strengthen its efforts in understanding and education, reaffirming its responsibility to both the university community and the public. Together with other academic institutions, the IUSS School of Pavia wants to help virtually reduce the distances we must maintain today, demonstrating that research, study, and cultural and social engagement, now more than ever, must not stop.”
