Doctorate in Agricultural and Forestry Sciences, research the impact of biotic/abiotic stress on plant physiology, particularly on Mediterranean crops. Researcher in the Agronomy Department working in plant physiology/biochemistry and oxidative stress. The aim of her research is to increase crop yield, quality, and sustainability. Complementarily, she studies new adaptation/mitigation strategies in the context of climate change scenarios. For these goals, she works with field instrumentation for monitoring photosynthetic behavior, plant water relations, and growth analysis, as well as in the laboratory evaluating metabolomic and oxidative stress analyses. She is part of many project teams and the author/co-author of several scientific articles published in international journals and book chapters. She is advisor/co-supervisor of many thesis and has participated as a reviewer of almost fifty scientific articles for publication in international journals. She worked with international teams such as in Italy, Spain, and Brasil.
