EU-funded researchers delved into how the nature of ‘things’ is shaped by their connectivity, particularly with regard to biological materials. The research resulted in the development of ‘bio-heritage’ as a novel and distinctive analytical concept.
“The project’s core goal was to advance our understanding of the various ways in which connectivity transforms the nature of the things connected,” says Professor Paolo Palladino, principal investigator on the SWLCONNECTIVITY project. A further goal was to “do this in a way that would speak to growing interest in the transformation of biological materials into drivers of economic growth.”
