Matteo Maestri is a Full Professor of Chemical Engineering at Politecnico di Milano, Italy. He earned his Laurea in Chemical Engineering with honors in 2004 and completed his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering and Industrial Chemistry summa cum laude in 2008. Since 2023, Matteo has served as Vice-Director for Research at the Department of Energy at Politecnico di Milano and as the Rector’s Delegate for international programs for young researchers. Matteo’s academic career is marked by extensive international experience. He was a visiting scholar at the University of Delaware, USA (2006–2007), an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow at the Fritz-Haber-Institute of the Max Planck Society in Berlin, Germany (2009–2010), and a researcher at the Department of Chemistry at TUM, Munich, Germany (2011). His research centers on the intersection of chemistry and chemical engineering with energy and sustainability, focusing particularly on catalytic kinetics and multiscale modeling of catalytic processes. His work spans atomistic simulations (DFT), Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), kinetic analysis, and operando spectroscopy techniques, including operando Raman and UV-vis. Matteo has received numerous accolades, including the TUM Ambassador honorary title from TUM Munich in 2021 and the Gian Paolo Chiusoli Gold Medal in Catalysis from the Italian Chemical Society in 2022. He has also led several prestigious research projects, including three ERC grants: an ERC Starting Grant (2015) and two ERC Proof-of-Concept Grants (2020 and 2022).
