Elisa Caracci graduated with honors in Mechanical Engineering (Energy and Environment curriculum) from the University of Cassino and Southern Lazio and, in the same year, obtained her professional qualification as an engineer in the field of industrial engineering. In 2024, she earned a PhD from the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Cassino, defending a thesis entitled “Characterization of airborne and respiratory particles in indoor environments.” During her doctoral studies, she spent a research period abroad at the IDAEA-CSIC Institute in Barcelona, where she investigated airborne microplastics. Her research activities mainly focus on environmental technical physics, with particular attention to indoor air quality and its impact on human health, as well as energy efficiency and smart buildings. She collaborates with several national and international research institutions, including the CNR Institute for Research on Atmospheric Pollution, the ENEA Energy Efficiency Unit, and various European research groups within international projects and networks. She has authored several publications in international journals and conference proceedings.
