Lorenzo Petrolli

Lorenzo Petrolli is a Research Fellow at the Department of Physics, University of Trento, focusing on computational biophysics and molecular dynamics. His work bridges radiation biology, structural biology, and nanotechnology, particularly in DNA damage analysis and atom probe tomography.

His research interests include:

• Molecular dynamics simulations of biomolecular systems
• Radiation-induced DNA damage mechanisms
• Atom probe tomography for structural characterization
• Chromatin structure and mechano-sensing in diseases

Scientific awards include a research fellowship at UniTrento. Key publications span molecular modeling of DNA minicircles (2025), RNA structures (2024), and radiation biology simulations (2023–2020).
