Matteo Mariani

I am a multidisciplinary innovation consultant with over 30 years of experience in scientific research, biotech, advanced engineering, and product development. Holding a Ph.D. in Biophysics, I possess a strong background in synthetic biology, molecular modeling, computational biology, and CNC-based prototyping. My journey has led me to found a Horizon-funded biotech startup and invent a patented method for in vivo directed evolution.

Throughout my career, I have been involved in various EU research and innovation consortia, serving as a technical evaluator, proposal advisor, and subcontractor. My expertise spans multiple areas, including synthetic biology, directed evolution, computational modeling, and advanced manufacturing for life sciences. I am passionate about leveraging AI and data science in biology, and I have a proven track record in proposal writing and work package design.
