The position is in Parma, at the District Authority but interactions with our group in Trento are foreseen to happen at daily basis.

IRPI in Perugia collaborate to the project, too.   If colleagues reading this post wish to join our crew, at present on a free basis (we have no that incredible money), but looking forward for a challenging collaborative research, they are welcomed. 
We are also looking for other funding resources to get new positions.
FYI, the District will probably hire many people on the next years, and therefore, our addiction, this position as well the others could be a way to learn some skills allowing to be overcome the selection to be hired.  We, at University of Trento, are also interested to people who could eventually be enroll for doctoral studies on the topics of the call.
