Rosario Fazio received his PhD in Physics in 1990 at the University of Catania. He is currently Head of the Condensed Matter and Statistical Physics Section of the Abdus Salam International Center for Theoretical Physics (Trieste) and Professor of Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics at the University of Naples "Federico II" . He is the Director of the Institute for Quantum Theoretical Technologies of Trieste.
He received the international "Luigi Tartufari" prize from the Accademia Nazionale Lincei in 2016, the "Google Quantum Research Award" in 2019, and an ERC Advanced Grant in 2022. His reseach interests are in theoretical condensed matter and quantum information processing focusing on quantum transport in nano-devices, mesoscopic superconductivity, quantum simulators, quantum information & many-body systems, open many-body systems.
