ILS Innovative Learning Spaces is the scientific school organized by DADU (Department of Architecture, Design and Planning, University of Sassari, in collaboration with the National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN Frascati), with the contribution of Sardegna Ricerche under the project Scientific School 2018-2019.

The scientific school ILS, held since 2016, is now in its 4th edition, thanks to the success obtained with an international network of renowned partners. 

The current edition of ILS 2019 will investigate the possible ways of communicating and sharing Scientific Knowledge, an extremely important issue for the growth of public awareness. 

ILS will explore the topic within a workshop where experts, students and professional entrepreneurs  will develop new ideas and design proposals based on interdisciplinary and transversal principles. 

ILS 2019_Landscapes of Knowledge aims to promote a high-value scientific and educational initiative able to open a rich dialogue among the researchers, daily working in research spaces, and the space designers fostering the reciprocal contamination between the two sectors. Research infrastructures are defined as facilities, resources or services used by researchers or companies for doing scientific research or enhancing knowledge and innovation. 

Research infrastructures can be great equipment, data archives, electronic devices or other kind of structures. They can be precisely located, distributed in space or virtually defined: regardless their nature, a research infrastructure is an excellence for knowledge and innovation. 

These infrastructures represent also the core of an advanced multidisciplinary research center, able to encourage research in the fields of biotechnology, environment depollution, imaging, medical and science applications.
