Guido Caldarelli (1967) was born in Rome, the same city where he earned a degree in Physics in 1992. After receiving his PhD at SISSA Trieste in 1996, he spent several years in Manchester and Cambridge as a Post-Doctoral researcher. Once having returned to Italy, Guido became a Senior Researcher at the Italian National Research Council. He is from 2014 Full Professor of Theoretical Physics at IMT Lucca. He has worked in the area of self-similarity (Fractals) in Statistical Physics and is presently working on Complex Networks. Outside of his research, he loves reading (everything) and considers himself an amateur cultivator of decorative plants. He also loves listening to music, and is a fan of Dire Straits, U2 and the Rolling Stones.
