*'''Ricerca fondamentale::''' La “ricerca di base” cerca di acquisire nuove conoscenze e comprendere processi complessi. Nasce dalla curiosità, 'interesse e intuizione del ricercatore' e viene condotto senza uno scopo pratico immediato, anche se i suoi risultati, forse anni dopo, possono avere importanti risvolti pratici.

*'''Industrial research:''' Also called applied research, it is chosen to find concrete and specific solutions. It’s aim is the '''use of theoretical knowledge for practical purposes''', not knowledge itself.

*'''Frontier research:''' The stiff separation between basic and applied research no longer exists here, just as it is no longer possible to clearly distinguish the disciplines. '''Addressing problems with an interdisciplinary approach and sharing knowledge''' acquired in different areas represent the new challenges of research. Today the most innovative sectors and studies  are those that lie on the borderlines between different disciplinary fields. This situation leads to a new interactive model in which fundamental research questions arise by addressing practical problems, and practical problems contribute to asking new questions.
