Short bio
I currently hold academic tenure as a Full Professor in Mathematics at the LUB, a position which I formerly held at the Alma Mater Studiorum-Università di Bologna and the Politecnico di Milano.
My scientific research began in the field of mathematics, specifically complex geometry. My PhD thesis at the University of Nizza led me to the study of algebraic geometry, particularly the classification of projective curves. The last part of this research involved a study of larger geometric objects (surfaces of four-dimensional spaces and two-codimensional projective subschemes).
In the same period, I began to look at historical and epistemological issues, particularly concerning didactic problems. Since 2000, my research has been centred upon Mathematics Education and the training of teachers.
