MIT Associate Professor Nicolas Hadjiconstantinou,  Daphne Molin, Pietro Poesio and Gian Paolo Beretta, in Pietro's office in Brescia, discuss their new method to model heat transfer enhancement induced by spinodal decomposition in microchannel flows (June 2011)

A peak of four MIT-MechE professors involved in the Cariplo exchange program are present in Brescia at the same time . To testify and celebrate the nice coincidence, we took this photo and had an informal lunch together with them and their collaborating Cariplo partners. The four MIT professors are: Konstantin Turitsyn (visiting Stefano Wabnitz), Nicolas Hadjiconstantinou (visiting Pietro Poesio), Kimberly Hamad-Shifferli (visiting Paolo Bergese), Tomasz Wierzbicki (visiting Alberto Salvadori). (June 24, 2011)

During their stay at MIT to work in collaboration with MIT Professor Tomasz Wierzbicki, Prof. Alberto Salvadori (CaRiPLo-UniBS Visiting Assistant Professor) and Elisabetta Bosco (CaRiPLo-UniBS Visiting Scientist) give a technical seminar (October 2011)

During the Fall 2012 stay at MIT prof. Beretta worked at the organization of the 12th Joint European Thermodynamics Conference, JETC 2013, that was held in Brescia, July 1-5, 2013.  This international event was very successful and concluded the Cariplo exchange program. The Cariplo Foundation has been indicated as a major sponsor of the event, see http://jetc2013.ing.unibs.it Here we see the conference room during a talk, a group photo, and the two co-directors of the Cariplo exchange program, prof. Beretta and prof. Ghoniem, giving their talks.
