CIRO CECCONI

Dr. Ciro Cecconi is an Associate Professor at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, affiliated with the Department of Physical, Computer and Mathematical Sciences (formerly the Physics Campus). His academic work spans biophysics, medical physics, and interdisciplinary education, with courses in biological physics, biochemistry, and physiology for biomedical degrees.

His research focuses on biological physics (e.g., lipid bilayer mechanics, protein folding, cellular thermodynamics) and medical physics (e.g., X-ray applications, hemodynamics). Teaching modules emphasize applied physics in pharmacy, medicine, nursing, and physiotherapy, with laboratory components in advanced biophysics courses.

Key themes include intermolecular forces, mechanobiology, and statistical fluctuations in biological systems. He employs English texts in teaching to foster international learning.
