Scientific Research
At Rizzoli Orthopedic Institute healthcare and scientific activity is performed on the basis of a departmental organization. Every department consists of the aggregation of:
- Complex healthcare structures;
- Research laboratories;
- Departmental Simple Structures.
The main objective of the departments is the convergence of skills of the various operational units to bring together healthcare and scientific activity.
Research is divided into current research and finalized research. The current research is programmed according to a triennial plan that follows six thematic principals. The finalized research consists of long-term projects financed by the Ministry of Health and also by other national and international institutions.
The scientific publications, in the six-year period from 2005 to 2009, assessed by normalizing the Impact Factor SCI according to ministerial criteria, show a positive trend.
