Dr Cléa Denamiel from the Ruđer Bošković Institue (RBI) in Zagreb, Croatia, has developed AdriSC, a novel kilometre-resolution computer model of the Adriatic Sea that brings marine heatwaves into sharp focus. 

In digital health, there is a painful truth that many innovators discover too late: testing their own idea can be more expensive than developing it. 

The Ruđer Bošković Institute (RBI) and the UAE-Croatia Business Club officially signed a Cooperation Agreement in Zagreb, marking a significant step towards deepening scientific, academic, and innovation ties between Croatia and the United Arab Emirates.

Scientists from the Ruđer Bošković Institute (RBI), in collaboration with international partners and Croatian hospitals, have developed a computational pathology method that uses a special type of histopathological imaging to more precisely define tumor boundaries, demonstrated on metastatic colorectal tumors in the liver.

The deep Adriatic is warming and becoming saltier at record speed. The changes expected by the end of the century are already happening today.

Imagine a tiny, worm‑like parasite, without a mouth or digestive tract, living concealed in the intestine of trout in the Krka River, yet potentially helping scientists gauge how polluted nature is with metals.

The startup Luxyon, founded by Stjepan Dolić from the Ruđer Bošković Institute (IRB) and his colleague Jakov Kukin, won first place at the recent Nuqleus Demo Day held as part of the Liftoff conference. Among a dozen promising teams from across Croatia, the duo impressed the jury with their vision and prototype of flexible, ultra-light perovskite solar cells, securing a place in the third and final phase of the program. This phase includes individualized mentorship and targeted support for the commercialization of their innovations.

While the rest of the world builds massive supercomputers the size of buildings, capable of performing an astonishing one trillion billion (10¹⁸) operations per second, known as exascale computers—a dedicated team of scientists from the Centre for Informatics and Computing (CIR) at the Ruđer Bošković Institute (IRB) is writing its chapter in the world of supercomputing.

Following the successful first InspireAdriatic symposium, held in Zagreb in 2023 and attended by 80 participants from various countries and scientific disciplines, the Ruđer Bošković Institute hosted the 2nd International Scientific Symposium “Interdisciplinary Approach to the Scientific Research of the Adriatic Sea” – InspireAdriatic 2025.
