Laureato in Geologia (biostratigrafia e sedimentologia) nel 2005, ho ottenuto il mio dottorato nel 2009 con una tesi sulle tracce di dinosauri del Giurassico superiore del Marocco. Da allora, il mio lavoro si è concentrato sull'icnologia dei vertebrati, specialmente -ma non solo - i dinosauri. Fin dal tempo del dottorato, sono stato affascinato dai nuovi metodi di digitalizzazione e dalla loro applicazione alle tracce, e nel tempo ho avuto modo di testarni molti. Negli ultimi anni, i progetti in cui sono stato coinvolto mi ha dato un forte background e competenze nell'applicazione della fotogrammetria alla paleontologia, permettendo la definizione di procedure standard per l'applicazione del metodo a qualsiasi campione paleontologico. Dopo un postod al Museum fuer Naturkunde Berlin, ho lavorato presso la Paléontologie A16 (Porrentruy, Svizzera) utilizzando metodi classici e innovativi per studiare la più grande collezione di impronte dinosauri al mondo (circa 1300 m2 di superfici originali e calchi, più di 1000 impronte) . Negli ultimi anni, sono anche stato coinvolto nello sviluppo e nel test del software itnologico freeware DigTrace, sviluppato dalla Bournemouth University dove ho trascorso un periodo come Visiting researcher. Dal 2020 sono Ricercatore RTD-b presso l'Università di Firenze.
I miei interessi di ricerca spaziano dall'icnologia dei dinosauri, all'icnologia dei vertebrati, ai metodi di digitalizzazione, all'uso dei dati paleontologici digitali per scopi museali, di ricerca (cybertaxonomia) e di divulgazione.

Legenda
Graduated in Geology (biostratigraphy and sedimentology) in 2005, I was awarded my PhD in 2009 with a thesis on dinosaur tracks from the Late Jurassic of Morocco. Since then, the focus of my work has been vertebrate ichnology, especially -but not only- dinosaurs. Since the doctoral period, I have been fascinated by the new digitization methods and their application to track, and I have tested many of them. In the last years, the projects I was involved gave me a strong background and skills in the application of photogrammetry to palaeontology, allowing the definition of standard procedures for the application of the method to any paleontological sample. After a postdoc at the Museum fuen Naturkunde Berlin, I worked at the Paléontologie A16 (Porrentruy, Switzerland) using classical and innovative methods to study the largest dinosaur track collection of the world (ca. 1300 m2 of original surfaces and casts, more than 1000 footprints). In the latest years, I was involved in the development and testing of the freeware ichnological software DigTrace, developed by the Bournemouth University where I have spent a period as Visiting researcher. Since 2020 I am Ricercatore RTD-b (Senior Lecturer) at the University of Florence.
My research interetst ranges from dinosaur ichnology, vertebrate ichnology, digitization methods, use of digital paleontological data for museum dispaly, reserach (cybertaxonomy) and outreach purposes.
