Raffaello PotestioRaffaello Potestio received his PhD in Statistical Physics from the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA-ISAS) in Trieste, Italy, in 2010, with a PhD Thesis on coarse-grained models of protein structure and interactions. In November 2010 e joined K. Kremer's group at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (MPIP) in Mainz, Germany, as a postdoc. Between August 2013 and December 2017 he has been Group Leader of the Statistical Mechanics of Biomolecules group. In 2017 he was awarded an ERC starting grant and moved to the University of Trento, Italy, where he is tenure track assistant professor In Physics. His main research interests are the development and application of coarse-grained models and coarse-graining strategies for soft matter, in particular biologically relevant systems, and the study of topologically self-entangled biopolymers.
