Francesco Giazotto is a senior researcher and group leader at the NEST Laboratory of the National Research Council (CNR)–Istituto Nanoscienze in Pisa, Italy. He obtained his PhD in Physics with honors (cum laude) in 2002 from Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa. His research focuses on mesoscopic superconductivity, quantum thermal transport, and the development of nanoscale superconducting devices. As the principal investigator of the Superconducting Quantum Electronics Laboratory (SQEL), his work includes quantum coherent caloritronics, thermal management at the nanoscale, and spintronics in superconducting systems. Francesco has authored over 250 peer-reviewed articles and holds 13 patents on superconducting nanodevices. His research has been cited more than 9,400 times. He has delivered over 125 invited talks at international conferences and institutions. He was awarded the prestigious ERC Consolidator Grant in 2013 and the ERC Proof of Concept Grant in 2020 for his groundbreaking work in nanoscale heat transport and superconducting devices.
