Daniela Iacoviello

Daniela Iacoviello is an Associate Professor at Sapienza University of Rome, working in the Department of Computer, Control and Management Engineering (DIS). She has held teaching positions since 2002, including courses in Automatic Control for Clinical Engineering. Her career spans research roles at Georgia Tech's Broadband & Wireless Networking Laboratory and leadership in interdisciplinary research centers like CISB and CRAS.

• B.Sc. in Mathematics (1992), Sapienza University of Rome
• Postdoctoral studies in Identification and Optimal Control (2000-2001), DIS
• PhD in System Engineering (1998), DIS

Her research focuses on optimal control applications in biomedical systems and epidemic modeling, with expertise in image analysis for materials science and signal processing for biological data. Her work combines theoretical control systems with real-world implementations in public health and materials diagnostics.

Recent publications demonstrate trends in epidemic containment (HIV, arboviruses, SARS-CoV-2), nonlinear control systems for chemotherapy optimization, and computational imaging for material characterization. She explores cross-disciplinary applications from aerospace research to neurological disorders.

She serves on editorial boards of journals like International Journal of Imaging and scientific committees of image analysis conferences. Her funded projects include ASI's SARFIRE and PRIN grants for neural network algorithms in biomedical imaging.
