EDUCATION

Overview

My educational background is Civil Engineering, and my research career has focused on the development of novel sensing solutions for Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) of civil infrastructures. Specifically, I have devoted large efforts to the development of self-diagnostic cement-based composite materials, both from a fundamental and methodological standpoint.
