Alessio Cimmino is Associate Professor of organic chemistry at the Department of Chemical Sciences, University of Naples Federico II since 1 October 2018. He has acquired over 20 years of experience mainly in organic chemistry, spectroscopy and hemisynthesis of bioactive metabolites (phytotoxins, plant growth regulators, antibiotics, mycotoxins, fungicides, phytoalexins, elicitors, herbicides, proteins, and polysaccharides) produced by phytopathogenic and antagonistic fungi and bacteria and plants. In particular, the stereostructural determination and hemisynthesis of bioactive metabolites and studies on structure–activity relationships and on their action mode have been carried out using advanced spectroscopic and chemical methods. He is a coauthor of more than 200 scientific publications in international journals and 70 communications at national and international congresses with h-index of 36 and citations 4000. Dr. Cimmino has established national and international collaborations with research centers and universities; he has participated in several scientific international (European) and national (Italian and Spanish) research projects, and admitted at financing on the basis of competitive calls that provide peer review. He has been a supervisor of MSc and PhD students and an invited speaker at national and international conferences.
