Biography

Dr. Fabio Cibella completed his Ph.D. studies cum laude in Medicine at the University of Palermo, Italy, in 1981. He has been a Researcher (permanent position) for the National Research Council of Italy since 1984. He has been a Research Director since 2023. He was involved in the study of bronchial hyperreactivity and respiratory mechanics, and he published two manuscripts concerning respiratory mechanics and energetics during exhaustive physical exercise at high altitudes between 1996 and 1999. Since 2004, he has been involved in the study of environmental epidemiology and the relationships between the environment and human health. His scientific activities are now focused on the evaluation of the effects of environmental pollution—indoors and outdoors—on the respiratory system and reproductive health. He is responsible for the NEHO (Neonatal Environment and Health Outcomes) cohort, the first residential cohort in Italy, especially developed in heavily contaminated areas (National Priority Contaminated Sites of Milazzo/Valle del Mela, Augusta/Priolo, and Crotone), developed within the CISAS Project (International Center of Advanced Study in Environment, Ecosystem and Human Health).
