He obtained a Bachelor degree cum laude in Mathematics in 2011, a Bachelor degree cum laude in Physics in 2012, and a Master degree cum laude in Physics in 2014. He received his Ph.D. in Science, Physics at KU Leuven University, Belgium. The dissertation concerned the aspects of ultrafast thermomechanics at the nanoscale. The Ph.D. project was joined with Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Brescia, Italy. During the Ph.D., he spent 9 months visiting the FemtoNanoOptics group, Université Lyon 1 (France), to work on a joint research project. He has been Postdoc Researcher at National Research Council, National Institute of Optics (CNR-INO) in Brescia, Italy, from December 2019 to January 2022.

He is currently working on the project OPTIMIST and he worked for the project OMEN.

Dr. Gandolfi is author of 28 peer-reviewed papers and is a referee for several international journals. His research topics covers the optics, the photonics and the opto-thermo-mechanical modeling of nano-objects and nanostructures. Marco Gandolfi’s h-index is 14 (Scopus, June 2023). 

He also serves as Editor for the journal MDPI Optics.
