Curriculum
I obtained a PhD in Chemical Sciences from University of Bari in 2010 and I worked in universities and research institutions in Italy, the USA and Canada, before returning to Bari in 2022 as an Assistant Professor in General and Inorganic Chemistry. I currently hold a position as Associate Professor in the same department, where I also serve as committee member of the PhD program in Chemical and Molecular Sciences and as reference person for job placement. My research focuses on laser-induced plasmas (LIPs) and their applications in analytical spectroscopy (in particular, LIBS, Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy) and material science, aiming to address fundamental issues in LIPs chemistry, to develop novel experimental methods to tackle those issues, and to apply these methods to real-world problems of interest in biomedicine, cultural heritage science, and geochemistry, among other fields. My recent and ongoing research projects involve developing experimental and computational LIBS-based methods for early diagnosis of asymptomatic diseases, micro-destructive analysis of historical objects, and highly sensitive elemental analysis by designing plasmonic and non-plasmonic sensing platforms.
