I earned a Master’s degree in Marine Biology from the University of Bologna and have continued to collaborate with the university even after completing my studies Subsequently, in the role of a sampling technician, I participated in characterizing the seafloor in Ravenna as part of the ‘Hub Portuale Ravenna’ project Currently, I hold a research fellowship at the CNR IRBIM headquarters in Ancona Specifically, my work involves habitat mapping and the assessment of natural and anthropic risks through the acquisition and processing of MultiBeam Echo Sounder acoustic data, integrated with multisource data (ROV, SSS).
The research activities of the Institute are carried out in the context of research, development and innovation projects, both national and international, based on regional funding programs (POR FEAMPA - Regional Operational Program of the European Maritime Affairs Fisheries Fund and Aquaculture and POR FESR - Regional Operational Program of the European Regional Development Fund) or ministerial (PRIN - Projects of relevant national interest, PNRA - National Research Program in Antarctica, PO FEAMPA - National Operational Program European Maritime Affairs Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund) , programs for European Territorial Cooperation (Interreg), direct funding programs of the European Commission (Horizon2020 and Horizon Europe, Life, JPI - Joint Programming Initiatives, ERA-NET Cofund) and thematic collaboration initiatives managed by international organizations such as, for example , the FAO - GFCM (General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean). The Institute also develops funded projects in the context of collaborations with private companies in the sectors of the blue economy as well as technology transfer and research results. Research projects, mainly of a collaborative nature, are developed through a wide network of partners that include major Italian and foreign research institutions and universities.
