Trained as an industrial chemist, my research activity is focussed on atmospheric science in both impacted (e.g. Po Valley), and remote locations (Antarctica, mountain sites, stratosphere), and recently bioaerosol, low-cost sensors , atmospheric deposition. First Italian academic to introduce PM10 metrics in aerosol sampling. Environmental radioactivity is one of my original specialties I still include in my research often associated with aerosols (tracer applications) and radon phenomenology
