Angelina Lo Giudice is a senior researcher at the Institute of Polar Sciences, National Research Council (CNR-ISP). She obtained her Ph.D. in Environmental Sciences at the University of Messina in 2006. She has participated in sampling campaigns in the Antarctic and Arctic areas, as well as in oceanographic cruises in the Mediterranean. She is actively involved in national and international research projects in the fields of microbial ecology (diversity and function of prokaryotes) of polar environments, biotechnology of cold-adapted bacteria (e.g., search for xenobiotic degraders and biomolecule producers), and bacterial interactions. She is particularly interested in the bacterial association with benthic filter feeders and the relationships between prokaryotes and chemical contamination. She is a peer-reviewer for international journals on ecology and microbiology, and a scientific reviewer for project proposals for international polar agencies.
