Alessandra Cianciosi, University of Amsterdam | Stanford University
NOTES FROM UNDERGROUND – MEMORIE DAL SOTTOSUOLO 

Alessandra Cianciosi is a medieval historian and archaeologist. Her research area focuses on landscape and funerary archaeology. After her PhD at the University of Bologna, she participated in several projects in and outside of Europe, managing different phases of research, from fieldwork to designing exhibitions and museum workshops. Alessandra is currently a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Global Fellow at the University of Amsterdam, in partnership with Stanford University, with a project on diseases and quarantine stations in the Indian Ocean during the colonial period.

 

Valentina Dal Cin, Università Ca’ Foscari, Venezia | Stanford University
SENDING A RESUME TO NAPOLEON. JOB APPLICATIONS IN THE EARLY NINETEENTH CENTURY.

Valentina Dal Cin is a historian specializing in the social history of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic ages. Before graduating from Ca’ Foscari University of Venice in 2011, she spent a year at Université Paris Sorbonne. In 2015, she received her Ph.D. from the University of Verona and then pursued her research at the Istituto Italiano per gli Studi Storici in Naples and the Maison des Sciences de l’Homme in Paris. She is currently a Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellow at Ca’ Foscari University and Stanford University, where she is leading the NapApps project on applications for employment in the Napoleonic age.

 

Federico Dallo, Università Ca’ Foscari, Venezia | University of California, Berkeley
LOW-COST WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND AIR QUALITY

Federico Dallo received his MS in Chemistry in 2013 at the University of Ferrara and his Ph.D in Environmental Science in 2017 at the Ca’ Foscari University of Venice. He then joined the Institute of Polar Science at the National Research Council of Italy. Federico is currently a Marie Skłodowska-Curie postdoctoral scholar at University of California, Berkeley and Ca’ Foscari University of Venice. He conducts research in the area of wireless sensor networks for environmental monitoring and indoor air quality. He is currently focused in the development of low-cost and low-powered sensing systems for in-situ data measurement of tropospheric ozone in remote alpine and polar areas. At UC Berkeley he is developing tools for measuring indoor PM2.5 and assess opportunities and barriers for particle exposure reduction inside homes during wildfires.

 

Elena Gissi, CNR | Stanford University
ADDRESSING MARINE CONSERVATION CHALLENGES IN A CHANGING CLIMATE

Elena Gissi, PhD, Marie Sklodowska Curie (MSCA) Fellow, is a Visiting Scholar at Stanford University, Hopkins Marine Station, USA, and Senior Researcher at the National Research Council, Italy. In 2020 she was awarded a prestigious MSCA by the European Commission with her project MEDIX Marine Environmental DynamIcs and seX-based analysis for climate change adaptation in marine spatial planning (2020-2023), for which she works with Prof. Fiorenza Micheli and Prof. Londa Schiebinger. Her research focuses on understanding and modeling the responses to climate change of marine life at multiple levels of biological organization, to incorporate this knowledge in ocean management for adaptation and mitigation of climate change. She currently works to integrate sex analysis in marine biology and ecology to harness the creative power of biological sex for innovation and discovery. She has over a decade of research experience in producing and integrating ecological knowledge and insights in decision making processes. She has applied her findings in marine spatial planning in the Mediterranean Sea, and also in environmental and energy planning. She has led European and national funded projects such as the Interreg Europe IRENES Integrating Renewable Energies and Ecosystem Services in Environmental and Energy Policies. Dr. Gissi has published 44 peer-reviewed articles in the field of ecosystem-based management, marine spatial planning, conservation planning and ecology.
