Dal 2002 sono Ricercatore all'Università degli Studi di di Bologna, prima presso la Facoltà di Farmacia ed il Dipartimento di Biochimica, ora presso il Dipartimento di Farmacia e Biotecnologie. Afferisco anche al Centro Interdipartimentale dei Ricerca Industriale di Scienze della Vita e Tecnologie per la Salute dell'Università di Bologna.

Dal 2004 sono titolare del corso di Nanobiotecnologie per i corsi di Laurea Specialistica in Biotecnologie Molecolari ed Industriali della mia Università. Ho avuto la titolarità del corso di Chimica Organica sul corso di laurea per Informatore Scientifico del Farmaco, del corso di Chimica delle Macromolecole nel corso di laurea di Scienze Farmaceutiche Applicate, del corso di Chimica Organica degli Inquinanti per il corso di laurea di Tossicologie Ambientali. Sono ora titolare del corso di Struttura degli Acidi Nucleici per il corso di laurea in Biotecnologie.

Ho conseguito il dottorato di Ricerca in Scienze Chimiche nel 1998, la laurea in Chimica Industriale (con lode) nel 1994. Ho svolto periodi di ricerca all'estero all'Università dell'Oregon (U.S.A.) e al Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory / Università della California a Berkeley (U.S.A.).

Nel 1994 ho ricevuto il premio della Federchimica come migliore laureando in discipline chimiche; nel 1998 ho ricevuto il premio Borsellino della Società di Biofisica Pura ed Applicata per la miglior tesi di dottorato.

Nel 2010 sono stato Visiting Professor presso la Scuola Politecnica Federale di Losanna, Svizzera (EPFL).

Afferisco all'Istituto di Nanoscienze del CNR (centro S3-CNR di Modena). Afferisco al Consorzio Nazionale Interuniversitario di Scienza e Tecnologia dei Materiali (INSTM). Sono membro della Società Chimica Italiana.

Ho partecipato a vari progetti di ricerca nazionali ed internazionali, tra cui PRISMA2004 INSTM, “NucAN” FP6 NMP-STREP, “DINAMICS” FP6-NMP IP, “BIONICS” (Eurocore-SONS) FIRB 2004 “COMBATCANCER”.

Sono autore di più di 50 pubblicazioni su giornali internazionali peer-reviewed.

I miei interessi di ricerca sono attualmente focalizzati sulla chimica e la biofisica degli acidi nucleici e delle proteine e sulle loro applicazioni nano biotecnologiche.
