The IOR is affiliated to the Università della Svizzera italiana (USI) and is located in a brand-new high-tech research building that hosts more than 20 different research groups, with state-of-the-art labs and facilities.


The IOR supports scientists impacted by the war in Ukraine

The IOR is sympathetic with all those scientists and their families touched by the Ukrainian conflict. In particular, we are supportive of the academics from Ukraine, as well as from Russia, who are affected by the current crisis.

If you are a PhD Student, a PostDoc, or a Senior Scientist impacted by the war and working on topics related to the Institute's research, we encourage you to contact us and inquire on the possibility to be hosted temporarily at the IOR.
