The SIGNeV Association is delighted to announce a significant enhancement in scientific collaboration between Germany and Italy, particularly between the Department of Physics ‘Ettore Pancini’ at the University of Naples Federico II and the Leibniz Institute for Materials and Solid State Research (IFW) in Dresden. At the heart of this partnership is Professor Nicola Poccia, recipient of a prestigious ERC Consolidator Grant, who is actively engaged in both Naples and Dresden, fostering an enriching exchange of students and researchers between the two institutions. This collaboration is driving the establishment of a cutting-edge laboratory at the University of Naples Federico II, dedicated to superconducting physics and the advancement of solid-state quantum technologies. Meanwhile, IFW Dresden continues to solidify its reputation as a center of excellence, particularly through its Superpuddles Lab, where Professor Poccia is leading groundbreaking research on superconducting materials. Professor Poccia’s career exemplifies the power of global scientific cooperation and the importance of embracing international opportunities. With research experience spanning Italy, the Netherlands, the United States, and Germany, his return to Italy marks a success for the country’s academic system and the city of Naples, positioning it as a hub for researchers worldwide. For SIGNeV, this synergy between Naples and Dresden highlights how research collaboration and knowledge exchange drive innovation and cultural growth, creating exceptional opportunities for Italian and international scholars alike. By nurturing new talent and fostering the free flow of ideas, these initiatives lay the groundwork for major advancements in superconductors and quantum technologies.
