Fabio Mangini received a bachelor's degree in Clinical Engineering in 2005 and a master's degree in Biomedical Engineering “cum laude” from La Sapienza University of Rome, Italy, in 2008. He received a PhD in Electromagnetism from the Department of Information Engineering, Electronics, and Telecommunications at the same University in 2014. In June 2014 and May 2015, he won the “Young Scientist Award” from URSI (International Union of Radio Science); in January 2017, he won the “PhD ITalents” prize; and in October 2018, he won the “Marabelli prize”. From 2009 to 2015, he worked with the Laboratory of Electromagnetic Fields II of Sapienza University of Rome. His research activity has been concerned with guiding structures, numerical methods, theoretical scattering models, optical propagation, anisotropic media, metamaterials, biomedical applications, and cultural heritage applications. From 2019 to 2022, he was a researcher in the Electromagnetic Fields and Photonics group at the University of Brescia. Since 2022, he has been a research fellow at the Nonlinear Optics Lab of Sapienza University of Rome. His research activity involves nonlinear propagation effects in optical communications and information-processing devices.
