Federico Rosei attended the United World College of the Adriatic from 1988 to 1990. He received a Laurea degree (1996) and a PhD (2001) in Physics from the University of Rome “La Sapienza” (Rome, Italy). He worked as a Post–Doctoral Research Associate and Marie Curie Fellow at the Center for  Atomic Scale Materials Physics in Aarhus (Denmark) from November 2000 until April 2002. He then joined the faculty at INRS- Energie, Materiaux et Telecommunications, Université du Québec as Assistant Professor in May 2002. Only two years later, he was promoted to Associate Professor, with tenure. He is recipient of a Strategic FQRNT Fellowship for New Professors from the Province of Quebec and holds the Canada Research Chair in Nanostructured Organic and Inorganic Materials. 
Dr. Rosei’s research interests focus on the properties of nanostructured materials, and on how to control their size, shape, composition, stability and positioning when grown on suitable substrates. He has extensive experience in fabricating, processing and characterizing inorganic, organic and biocompatible nanomaterials for applications in electronics, health and alternative energies. 
He has co–authored over 70 articles in prestigious international journals (including Science) and has given over 70 Invited, Keynote and Plenary Talks at international conferences and over 95 seminars at Universities, Government and Industrial Laboratories since 2000
