I am a statistician developing methods for the analysis of large, high-dimensional and complex data, and applying such methods in several scientific fields - including contemporary "Omics" sciences, Meteorology and Economics. I received a Laurea (cum laude) in Statistic and Economic Sciences from the University of Rome La Sapienza (Rome, Italy) and a Ph.D. in Statistics from the University of Minnesota (Minneapolis MN, USA). At the Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies (Pisa, Italy) I work in the Institute of Economics. At the Pennsylvania State University (University Park PA, USA) I work in the Department of Statistics; I am also active in the Institute for Genome Sciences (one of the Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences), the Center for Medical Genomics, the Center for Comparative Genomics and Bioinformatics, and I have a courtesy affiliation with the Department of Public Health Sciences. Other academic institutions where I entertain collaborations and spent time over the years include the MOX laboratory of the Politecnico di Milano (Milan, Italy), the Istituto di Analisi dei Sistemi e Informatica of the CNR (Rome, Italy), the Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics of UCLA (Los Angeles CA, USA), the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences and the Department of Biology of NYU (New York, NY, USA), the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (Laxenburg, Austria), and the Santa Fe Institute (Santa Fe NM, USA).
