DIMEC has a long history, and its creation gave rise to the largest department in the field of healthcare at any Italian university: an impressive structure in terms of size, scientific output, and clinical excellence, integrating all aspects of biomedical and translational research and covering all aspects of prevention, diagnosis, and therapy. It also offers excellent training, preparing highly qualified professionals to face the challenges of future medicine.
A department capable of responding to society's needs and supporting technological innovation, with a particular focus on the needs of the most vulnerable members of society.
We are committed daily to creating an optimal synergy between healthcare, research and training activities, thanks to advanced infrastructures and strategic programs. This ambitious vision aims to generate a significant impact in the Italian and international scenario, contributing to developing improved solutions for collective health and well-being.
DIMEC represents a complex and articulated reality, with 51 Scientific-disciplinary Sectors, 7 research areas and a vast educational offer. The distribution of activities across five sites, from the Bologna Campus to Rimini, and the close collaboration with the S. Orsola IRCCS and the Romagna Local Health Authority, testify to our commitment to research, teaching and clinical practice.
The Sant’Orsola IRCCS represents the fulcrum of the Department's research, training and healthcare activities, with a constant expansion and strengthening of initiatives. This model of integrated collaboration is the engine for continuous and sustainable progress in the academic and healthcare fields.
