Professor of Electronics at University of Campania Luigi Vanvitelli, Naples, Italy
Nunzio Cennamo was born in Italy in 1975. He received the master degree in Electronic Engineering in 2002 and the PhD degree in Electronic Engineering in 2005, both from the Second University of Naples, Naples, Italy. He is a full Professor in Electronics at the University of Campania Luigi Vanvitelli, Naples (Italy). His research interests include the design and fabrication of optical sensors, chemical sensors, biosensors and optoelectronic devices. He is the author of more than 210 international journal and conference papers and 12 patents. He is cofounder of the Spin Off "MORESENSE srl" in Milan (Fondazione Filarete, Milan - Italy). He is an Associate Editor of “Photonics Research” (OSA), of “Applied Sciences“ (MDPI), and "Sensors" (MDPI). He is an Organizer and General Chair of several Internation Conferences, the “IEEE Sensor Applications Symposium” (SAS 2024), Naples (Italy) July 23-25, “7th International Symposium on Sensor Science” (I3S 2019) 9-11 May 2019, Naples (Italy), and of four editions of the “International Electronic Conference on Applied Sciences” (ASEC 2021, ASEC 2022, ASEC 2023, ASEC 2024). He is a Publicity Chair of two editions (the 6th and 7th) of the “IEEE International Symposium M&N (18-20 July 2022 Padua - Italy and 3-5 July 2024 Rome - Italy). He is several times an Invited Speaker in Webinars, Summer Schools, and International Conferences. He is an Organizer/Chair of several Special Session in International Conferences and a Member of several Scientific Committees. He is a Principal Investigator of several national Projects and Coordinator of the Local Unit of national and international Projects (total budget about 2M Euros).

Robert M. Berne Cardiovascular Research Center, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, USA
Dr. Toldo, an Italian native, received an MS degree in Molecular Biology from the University of Rome “La Sapienza” in 2006 and a Ph.D. degree in Cellular and Molecular Cardiology from the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart of Rome, in 2010. After a postdoctoral fellowship at the Virginia Commonwealth University Pauley Heart Center, in 2015 Dr. Toldo became Assistant Professor of Medicine at the same institution. In 2021 he was promoted to the rank of Associate Professor and in 2023 moved to the Robert M. Berne Cardiovascular Research Center at the University of Virginia. The research focus of Dr. Toldo is oriented toward understanding the mechanism by which stress signals and myocardial injury lead to activation of the local and systemic inflammatory response that affects the heart function and structure.
