Master degree in Physics and Computer Science at the University of Napoli "Federico II", a PhD in condensed matter Physics at the Boston University. Research professor at CNR - Institute for Complex Systems UoS "La Sapienza", associate professor at IMT Alti Studi Lucca and research Fellow at LIMS - London Institute for Mathematical Sciences. His main skills are Statistical Physics and Computational Physics; published papers on percolation, disordered systems, pattern formation, metastable liquids, glassy systems, energy landscapes, protein folding, complex networks, event-driven algorithms, Brownian simulations for hard-bodies, complexity in economics, network medicine, power grids, self-healing networks. Together with G. D'Agostino, organizer of the workshop series "Networks of networks" on Systemic Risk and Infrastructural Inter-dependencies. Current focus: complex infrastructural networks and on computational social science.
