Paola Sassi is an associate professor of Physical Chemistry at the University of Perugia in the Department of Chemistry, Biology, and Biotechnology. She holds a master’s degree in Chemistry and a doctoral degree in Chemical Sciences. As a researcher of physical chemistry, she deals with the spectroscopic characterization of biomaterials (cells and tissues) and the study of chemical-physical properties of macromolecules (both natural and synthetic) in solution. Vibrational, orientational, and structural relaxation processes of simple and complex fluids are also studied using Raman, Depolarized Rayleigh, and Brillouin scattering, together with FTIR absorption. Since January 2017, she has been a member of the Proposal Review Panel of ELETTRA SINCROTRONE Trieste—Scattering beamline, and a member of the Proposal Review Panel of the European Research Infrastructure Consortium (CERIC-ERIC)—IUVS and SISSI beamlines. Since 2022, she has been affiliated with Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN) as a member of the international collaboration Virgo Coatings R&D.
