Graduated in Marine Biology and Oceanography at the Polytechnic University of Marche in Ancona in 2008 with the thesis “Spatial distribution and stock assessment of Solea solea (Quensel 1806) in the northern and central Adriatic Sea“, received his Ph.D. in Marine Biology and Ecology in 2016 with the dissertation “Effects of anthropogenic activities on the life cycle and abundance of Penaeus (Melicertus) kerathurus in the Adriatic Sea“. He prepared the thesis at the Institute of Marine Sciences (ISMAR) of the National Research Council (CNR) of Ancona, where he continued to work until today as a Researcher. He has had experience in the fields of fisheries science as a scientific manager in several projects and has participated in various national and international research projects. In particular, in the last 20 years, he has deepened his knowledge on topics related to fisheries science, biology and ecology of target species, impact of artificial structures (e.g. artificial reefs and offshore platforms), marine space planning, GIS mapping, bioeconomic models and invasions of non-indigenous species. He has participated as an expert in various working groups of FAO, GFCM, CIESM and STECF. He is currently involved as a national focal point in the pilot study on recreational fishing and in the Blue Crab program of the General Fisheries Commission in the Mediterranean.
