Draft:Dario Polli

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO, WP:PROF) but presently does not. As you may know, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable. Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. To properly create such a draft page, please see referencing for beginners or the article Easier Referencing for Beginners. Please note that many of the references are not formatted correctly (see Wikipedia’s Manual of Style for help). Additionally, the draft tends to read too much like a CV, which Wikipedia is not. Also, if you have any connection to the subject, including being paid, you have a conflict of interest that you must declare on your Talk page (to see instructions on how to do this please click the link). Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements then resubmit the page and ping me and I would be happy to reassess. As I said, I do think this draft has potential so please do persevere! Cabrils (talk) 05:51, 18 July 2023 (UTC)

Dario Polli is an Italian physicist and academic, whose research interest include the development of innovative microscopy systems, especially in the field of coherent Raman scattering microscopy, ultrafast spectroscopy, Fourier-Transform spectroscopy and hyperspectral imaging. He is currently serving as a Full Professor of Physics at the Physics Department of the Politecnico di Milano[1]. Polli is also associated with the Italian CNR (National Research Council) with a research assignment [2].

Early life and education

[edit]

Polli completed his Master's degree in Electronics Engineering cum laude at the Politecnico di Milano. He also holds a Master's degree in Physical Engineering from the École Centrale de Paris in France, which he obtained through the "TIME - Top Industrial Managers for Europe" project.

From 2002 to 2005, Polli pursued a Ph.D. in Physics at the Physics Department of the Politecnico di Milano. After completing his Ph.D., he joined the Physics Department as an Assistant Professor.

Career

[edit]

Polli currently heads a research group at Politecnico di Milano dedicated to the development of innovative label-free nonlinear optical microscopy systems for biological applications, such as coherent Raman scattering microscopy, second-harmonic imaging and two-photon-excited fluorescence[3]. His previous works focused on investigating the ultrafast dynamics of excited states in organic molecules, semiconductors, and nanomaterials.

Polli has been the principal investigator for several research grants, such as an European Research Council (ERC) consolidator grant “VIBRA”[4][5][6], two ERC Proof-of-Concept grants[7], an Horizon-2020 project[8][9] and an European Innovation Council (EIC) Transition project.

Outside academia, Polli founded three startups: NIREOS[10][11], Specto Photonics[12] and SunCubes[13].

Awards and Honours
