The INvestigating Stellar Population In RElics is an on-going project targeting 52 ultra-compact massive galaxies at 0.1<z<0.5 with the X-Shooter@VLT spectrograph (XSH). These objects are the perfect candidates to be 'relics', massive red-nuggets formed at high-z (z>2) through a short and intense star formation burst, that evolved passively and undisturbed...
