SUMMARY:CNR-ISB Open Day “Biodiversa-Mente”
DESCRIPTION:Rome\, Italy \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOpen Day “Biodiversa-Mente” \n\n\n\nUnderstanding Biodiversity to protect ecosystems for the future \n\n\n\n15 May 2025 \n\n\n\nArea territoriale di Ricerca Rome 1 (ARRM1)\, National Research Council of Italy \n\n\n\nMontelibretti (Rome) \n\n\n\n“From Soil to Sky: Exploring Biodiversity and Green Bioacoustics through Sounds\, Sound Signals\, and Music from Plants.” \n\n\n\nCarmelo Cannarella (CNR-ISB) \n\n\n\nOn May 15\, 2025\, at the Territorial Research Area of the National Research Council (CNR) (ARRM1) in Montelibretti (Rome)\, an open day event titled “Biodiversa-Mente” is organized for high school students. During this open day\, many CNR institutes in the ARRM1 will open their doors to students to create pathways for discovery and awareness\, providing fundamental knowledge about the role of biodiversity. The goal of this event is to stimulate critical thinking on the value of biodiversity conservation and enhancement in the context of global climate change. \n\n\n\nAs part of this event\, the Institute for Biological Systems of the CNR (CNR-ISB) is organizing the initiative “From Soil to Sky: Exploring Biodiversity and Green Bioacoustics through Sounds\, Sound Signals\, and Music from Plants.” This workshop\, held by Carmelo Cannarella\, senior technologist at the CNR-ISB\, is designed to discuss biodiversity with the help of examples of music generated by plants\, using the electrical conductivity (EC) of a plant or tree to generate impulses and transform them into acoustic signals. These signals are then processed with a synthesizer to create harmonic sounds\, and even music\, to stimulate a different approach to nature and biodiversity through sound. Plants in fact are true mediators between the earth and the sky. Plants therefore act as an ‘open system\,’ interconnected between the sky and the earth\, constantly subject to the influence of these two regions\, of which they become the combined expression. Many factors\, among which the characteristics and qualities of the soils – at the core of the SPIN-FERT project – play a fundamental role\, thus have a great influence on the plants’ health\, which is reflected in the electrical conductivity from which we generate these sonic biofeedbacks. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n15 May 2025 \n\n\n\nArea territoriale di Ricerca Rome 1 (ARRM1)\, National Research Council of Italy \n\n\n\nMontelibretti (Rome) \n\n\n\n“Fungal Biodiversity: Colors\, Shapes\, and Functions. Insights from the PNRR-NBFC and SPIN-FERT Projects.” \n\n\n\nFlavia Pinzari (CNR-ISB) \n\n\n\nOn May 15\, 2025\, at the Territorial Research Area of the National Research Council (CNR) (ARRM1) in Montelibretti (Rome)\, an open day event titled “Biodiversa-Mente” is organized for high school students.

The goal of this event is to stimulate critical thinking on the value of biodiversity conservation and enhancement in the context of global climate change.  \n\n\n\nAs part of this event\, the Institute for Biological Systems of the CNR (CNR-ISB) is organizing the initiative titled “Fungal Biodiversity: Colors\, Shapes\, and Functions. Insights from the PNRR-NBFC and SPIN-FERT Projects.” This workshop\, held by Flavia Pinzari (CNR_ISB) is aimed to show the students the peculiar fungal features and characteristics: fungi are organisms that can be microscopic or form underground networks stretching for kilometers. Only 100\,000 species have been identified so far\, out of an estimated total ranging between 0.8 and 3.8 million. They show an enormous diversity of forms and functions. Some are parasitic\, others symbiotic\, and many are saprotrophic\, living by decomposing plant and animal debris\, thus recycling nutrients in the soil to the benefit of plants. Some are even capable of dissolving rocks. The experiences of the PNRR-NBFC and SPIN-FERT projects are described during the workshop. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n21 May 2025 \n\n\n\nArea territoriale di Ricerca Rome 1 (ARRM1)\, National Research Council of Italy \n\n\n\nMontelibretti (Rome) \n\n\n\n“From Soil to Sky: Exploring Biodiversity and Green Bioacoustics through Sounds\, Sound Signals\, and Music from Plants.” \n\n\n\nCarmelo Cannarella (CNR-ISB) \n\n\n\nOn May 21\, 2025\, at the Territorial Research Area of the National Research Council (CNR) (ARRM1) in Montelibretti (Rome)\, an open day event titled “Biodiversa-Mente” is organized for high school students.
