Daniele Andreucci is full professor of Mathematical Physics at the Faculty of Civil and Industrial Engineering of University La Sapienza of Rome, since 2000. He has been associate professor of Mathematical Analysis at the same Faculty in the years 1992-2000. He graduated in Mathematics at the University of Firenze in 1982 and obtained a Dottorato in Mathematics at the University of Firenze in 1987 and a PhD in Mathematics at Northwestern University in 1990. He has participated to national and international research projects, and has coordinated projects funded by INdAM and Sapienza University.

His main scientific interests concern nonlinear partial differential equations of parabolic type and their applications, namely to biology. Typical research topics are: asymptotic behavior for large times of solutions to equations of the type of porous media or p-Laplacian in dependence of the geometry of the domain and of the nonlinearities in the equation, the existence of solutions under optimal assumptions on the initial data, the existence of global in time solutions for problems which exhibit the phenomenon of blow up in a finite time, the macroscopic behavior of diffusion problems in media with microscopical heterogeneities. In particular, he has worked on equations of the type of porous media or p-Laplacian in domains of the Euclidean space with noncompact boundary or on Riemannian manifolds; on mathematical models in biology (phototransduction, applications of stem cells); on homogenization of problems with periodic interfaces where one prescribes dynamical or imperfect contact conditions.
