He obtained his PhD from the University of Salerno (Italy) in 2007. He joined Nottingham in 2009 after postdoctoral positions in Salerno, Rome and Barcelona. His main interests are in the characterisation, quantification and operational interpretation of quantum correlations in composite systems, including entanglement, nonlocality, steering, and discord. He has contributed significantly to the development of quantum information theory with Gaussian states of continuous variable systems. He has published over 90 articles, delivered over 60 invited talks, and attracted over 2000 citations.
