The PI is associate professor in Organic Chemistry (SSD CHIM/06) at the host institution since
31/12/2018. Previously, he served as assistant professor (rtd-a) at the same university for five
years. The PI is member of the Chemistry, Life Sciences and Environmental sustainability
department, is responsible of didactic courses for the bachelor degree in Chemical Sciences, the master
degree in Industrial Chemistry and the PhD school in Chemical Sciences (148 hours/15 cfu per year) and is
member of the PhD School in Chemical Sciences.
In the last ten years the PI has been tutor of 26 bachelor and master students, supervised 9 PhD theses and
6 post-docs.
The PI has been actively engaged in the last few years into several research projects involving
also entities beyond its host institution, both public and private. He has been the PI of two
research contracts with private companies and sporadically provides consulting on structural
identification of organics. Furthermore, the research and training duties carried out by the PI
contributed to the development of several new students and young researches, who for a sizeable
majority are still in the R&D sector, both in academia and for private companies. With respect to
the scientific community, both national and international, the activity of the PI is witnessed by the
ample and regular scientific output as corresponding author, in particular on catalytic synthesis,
on the best international journals and the most respected organic chemistry ones. The
acknowledgement of this contribution is further showed by his routine activity as referees for the
main international editors (ACS, Wiley, RSC, average of 15/year), from the junior prize for the
Italian Chemical Society for Methods in Organic Chemistry (2017) and by 5 invitation as speaker
in international conferences.
