Chiara Eva Catalano

Chiara Eva Catalano is a researcher at CNR IMATI in Genova, and member of the Shape and Semantics Modelling Group. She took a degree in Mathematics at the University of Parma and got a Ph.D. in Mechanics and Machine Design at the University of Genova. Her research interests include geometric and feature-based modelling for industrial design, semantics in 3D modelling for applications (Medicine, Cultural Heritage, Serious Gaming), and bioinformatics.
She actively participated in many national and international projects, such as AIM@SHAPE, FOCUS K3D, GALA, MultiScaleHuman, and is currently involved in GRAVITATE. Along the years she had the opportunity to collaborate with several well-known research institutes in a very interdisciplinary perspective.
