10/11/1995 Specialisation Course in Neonatal Intensive Care in the Institute of Pediatric Clinic of Rome University “La Sapienza”

During his Specialisation Course he worked diligently in the Department of Pediatric Clinic of the General Hospital Umberto I carrying on activities of caring and research.

January – August 1993 Scientific Research in the Department of Gastoenterology of St Thomas’ Hospital of London. During this period he has particularly studied indirect-cell intestinal immunity. He has widely published the results of this research in international reviews.

From May 1999 to nowadays he has been carrying on his professional activity as Medical Manager I° level in Bambino Gesù Pediatric Hospital in Rome (first in Emergency Department then from 2002 in Hepatology Department). Actually, he is the Head of Metabolic and Autoimmunity Liver Disease section and the Chief of Liver Research Unit.

Since September 2011 he is the Vice-President of SIGENP (Italian Society Gastro Hepato Nutrition Pediatric). He is also a member of the Hepatology Committee of the ESPGHAN (European Society Gastro Hepatology Nutrition Pediaric)

He is reviewer for the following medical Journal: Hepatology, GUT, Journal Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Journal Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, World Journal Gastroenterology, Journal of Hepatology, Liver International, Pediatric Transplantation, Expert Review of Molecular Diagnostics, Journal of Hematology, Journal of Internal Medicine, Journal of Clinical Rheumatology, Clinical Endocrinology

He has published many works in international reviews (more than 200) and he has attended many national and international Congresses as reporter.
