Professional Profiles:

Education

Dr. Giulia CipriA noble fin in the Mar Piccolo of Taranto, employing environmental monitoring techniques and GIS technology to assess conservation efforts and the impact of human activities. She also earned a Master’s degree in Environmental Sciences and Technology from the same university on 24 November 2011, graduating with honors and presenting a thesis on the implementation of a GIS for environmental impact studies. Earlier, on 10 December 2009, she completed her Bachelor’s degree in Marine and Coastal Resources Management, graduating with honors and focusing her thesis on the use of fluorescent nanostructures for detecting pollutant metals. Dr. Cipriano has also pursued numerous additional training courses to enhance her expertise. In January 2023, she became accredited as a Marine Mammal Observer (MMO) and Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) operator after completing the ACCOBAMS MMO and PAM Operator Course in Kaş, Turkey. She has furthered her statistical analysis skills through a course in R, organized by TerreLogiche Srl. in April 2021. Her knowledge of ecosystem-based marine resource management was advanced by attending the Advanced School on Multispecies Modelling Approaches for Ecosystem-Based Marine Resource Management in the Mediterranean Sea (AMARE-MED) courses in June 2021 and July 2019, organized by the National Institute of Oceanography and Experimental Geophysics (OGS) in Split, Croatia, and Venice, Italy.

Professional Experience
