Welcome!
You will find here information on my activity.
I studied Statistical Physics, and I work in the field of Complex Networks. I got my degree in 1992 in Rome (La Sapienza), my PhD in 1996 in Trieste (SISSA). After Postdocs in Manchester and Cambridge I became firstly research assistant in INFM and then Primo Ricercatore at ISC-CNR where I am still working with many friends and colleagues. Presently I am Professor in Physics at IMT Lucca, and a LIMS Fellow.

Complex Networks
Complex Networks are one of the most fascinating contemporary field of research.
Scale-Invariance
With the term Scale-Invariance we indicate various properties. Self-similarity (spatial scale-invariance), avalanche dynamics (temporal scale-invariance) and complex networks (topological scale-invariance)
Plants
Plants are able of amazing sensing capabilities, each single root apex being able to simultaneously and continuously monitor at least five chemical and physical parameters.
