Dr. Gino Briganti completed his master's degree in Physics at the University of Pisa, with a theoretical thesis on lattice QCD. He is currently working at the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy, and Sustainable Economic Development (ENEA) in Italy. He is a member of the MINNI workgroup, which supports the Italian Ministry of Environment on air quality policies and international negotiations regarding atmospheric pollution; MINNI is currently a member of the model ensemble in the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service, providing forecasts for European air quality. His research interests include the micrometeorology of the atmospheric boundary layer, as well as the development of models for predicting the dispersion and chemical transformation of gaseous and aerosol pollutants at the urban, regional, and mesoscale levels.
