Filippo is a research scientist at the Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK), within the Dynamical Processes in Complex Societies (DPCS) unit. He holds a PhD in Statistics from Bocconi University and spent part of his PhD at the MD Anderson Cancer Centre in Houston. Filippo has worked in the last years on the development of mathematical models to investigate the spread of infectious diseases in the human population and evaluate the containment and mitigation measures, accounting for population heterogeneity and demographic changes.
Piero is a research scientist at the Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK), within the Dynamical Processes in Complex Societies (DPCS) unit. His research focuses on the development and analysis of computational models for investigating the epidemic spread in human populations and for evaluating the effect of control measures and disease containment/mitigation strategies.
Alessia is an Associate Professor at the Social and Political Science Department and Research Fellow at the DONDENA Centre for Research on Social Dynamics at Bocconi University. She holds a Degree in Economics from Bocconi University and a PhD in Biological Sciences from Warwick University. Alessia has worked several years in the Modelling and Economics Unit at the Health Protection Agency (now Public Health England) in the UK where she was involved in informing policy decision makers on the introduction of vaccination programs that were under consideration at the UK Department of Health.
Stefano leads the DPCS (Dynamical Processes in Complex Societies) Research Unit at Bruno Kessler Foundation, Italy. His research has covered a range of scientific aspects related to epidemiology and computational modelling of infectious diseases such as large scale simulations of emerging infectious diseases, e.g. pandemic influenza; evaluation of mitigation/containment policies, with specific focus on pandemic influenza and Ebola; and effects of population heterogeneity and human mobility on the spatio-temporal spread of epidemics.
