Gianluigi Rozza

Gianluigi Rozza is a Full Professor in Numerical Analysis and Scientific Computing at SISSA (International School for Advanced Studies) in Trieste, Italy. He leads the SISSA mathLab research group and serves as Coordinator of the Mathematics Area at SISSA. He holds roles such as SISSA Director's Delegate for Innovation and Knowledge Transfer and member of various committees including the SISSA HPC Committee and SIAM Student Chapter. His research focuses on numerical analysis, computational fluid dynamics, reduced order methods (ROM), and their applications in engineering and biomedical fields.

Education: Laurea cum Laude in Aerospace Engineering from Politecnico di Milano (2002), PhD in Applied Mathematics from EPFL (2005). Postdoctoral research at MIT (2006-2008), followed by roles at EPFL and SISSA. He has supervised over 30 PhD and Master’s students, with expertise in reduced order modeling and computational mechanics.

Research Interests: Reduced basis methods, parametrized PDEs, fluid-structure interaction, cardiovascular simulations, environmental flows, machine learning integration, and industrial collaborations with companies like Danieli and Fincantieri. He coordinates EU projects such as the ERC Consolidator Grant AROMA-CFD (2016-2021) and the ITN ROMSOC project.

Publications: Over 90 scientific papers, two books as editor, and contributions to open-source software like rbMIT and ITHACA-FV. Awards include the ECCOMAS Young Investigator Award (2014), SIAM Fellowship (2025), and the Gili Agonistelli Prize (2025).

Grants and Projects: Principal Investigator of ERC AROMA-CFD and ARGOS PoC. Coordinates regional projects like UBE (Under Water Blue Efficiency) and TRIM. Engages in environmental modeling (e.g., SOPHYA, PRELICA) and industrial collaborations under MAR tc FVG.

Labs/Teams: SISSA mathLab develops open-source tools for computational science, including ROM libraries and fluid dynamics solvers. Active in organizing workshops, serving on editorial boards (e.g., SIAM Journals), and advisory roles for agencies like ARPA FVG.
