Mario Coccia, Research Director.
I am a social scientist at the National Research Council of Italy (CNR).
My passion is to study the primary sources of socioeconomic phenomena with novel hypothesis-driven researches that contribute new knowledge to help address and solve problems related to environment and human society at a regional or global scale.
In particular, my goal is to make cross-disciplinary studies that illuminate and advance fundamental understanding within following research fields:
- Origin, evolution and diffusion of technology
- Artificial Intelligence in medicine
- Evolution of Science
- Interaction between total environment (which interfaces the atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and anthroposphere) and diseases
- Nano-, micro-, meso-, and macro-scale aspects of materials and technologies for sustainable development
- All aspects of environmental pollution and its effects on ecosystems and human health
- Interaction between contaminant exposure and biological, ecological, and human health effects, including those of climate change.
- Anthropogenic and technological issues of global relevance
