Nota biografica: 

Laureata nel 2019 in Ingegneria edile - architettura, ha successivamente conseguito il titolo di Dottore di Ricerca in Energia e Sviluppo Sostenibile presso l'Università degli Studi di Perugia. Durante il dottorato e nei seguenti due anni da post-doc, ha svolto e svolge tuttora attività di ricerca nell’ambito di progetti nazionali (PRIN, FISR ed altri ministeriali) ed internazionali, finanziati soprattutto dalla Commissione Europea nei programmi Horizon 2020 e Horizon Europe. Nel corso di tali attività ha portato avanti studi scientifici nei campi (i) dei materiali innovativi per l'ambiente edilizio volti all'ottimizzazione dell'efficienza energetica, fra cui materiali per il raffrescamento passivo e radiativo delle superfici urbane e (ii) del benessere ambientale multifisico indoor e outdoor, con particolare attenzione alla sfera termica e visiva. Grazie anche alle collaborazioni con realtà industriali ed aziendali nazionali e internazionali, ha sviluppato un profilo scientifico di natura teorica, numerica e sperimentale, nonché capacità di trasferimento tecnologico e valorizzazione della proprietà intellettuale, come attestato dalla concessione di due brevetti per modello di utilità. I principali risultati dell’attività scientifica della candidata sono contenuti nei diversi contributi originali pubblicati in riviste internazionali di comprovata qualità, dei quali risulta essere primo autore per più della metà.
