I deal with computer science and electronics: from sampling at sea, to modelling, beyond the management of complex IT infrastructures. Since the end of 2010, I have been working at the Marine Science Institute in Ancona, working as a system manager and then in direct support in research, developing acquisition, management and data processing systems. Since 2013 I am engaged in the study of acoustic acquisition systems for the preservation of cetaceans, processing and modelling in the geochemical and microbiological field. Since 2019, merged into IRBIM, I also play the role of Head of Computing. In 2020 I took care of the organization as the Italian host of Ocean Hackathon. I collaborate with several national or international projects.
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.
