myself…

I received my PhD in chemistry in 1997 at the University of Rome “La Sapienza”, Italy. Since 1996, I have held a postdoc position in the group of Prof. H.J.C. Berendsen in the Chemistry department at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands. In 2001, I returned to my home country with research associate fellowships, first at the University of Rome “La Sapienza” and later at the University of L’Aquila. In 2003, I started a senior research associate position in Germany at the International University Bremen.  In July 2005, I was first promoted to University Lecturer and, later in 2009,  to Assistant Professor at the same university (later renamed Jacobs University Bremen). Since then, I have led a computational chemistry and biophysics group, which attracted funding and PhD students from German national research agencies (DFG, BMBF, DAAD), EU, and biotech companies (EVONIK, BASF, BRAIN). In October 2015 I moved to the University of Lincoln as a Senior Lecturer in Applied Mathematics in the School of Mathematics and Physics.
