Dr. Tassani was born in Italy (1979) and holds a Ph.D. in bioengineering (2009) from the University of Bologna, Italy, with the thesis “Evaluation of Bone Strength: Microtomographic Techniques”). During his studies Dr. Tassani focused in biomechanics of bone tissue in osteoporotic and osteoarthritic subjects working at Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli, Bologna, Italy. In 2010 Dr. Tassani was awarded a Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship and moved to the Institute of Communications and Computer Systems, at the National Technical University of Athens, Greece, where he carried out his post-doc in data science, classification techniques, and image processing. During his post-doc, he spent a secondment at TUe, Eindhoven, The Netherlands, where he attended Philosophy Certificate Program on bioethics. Following his interest in gait and posture and their influence over the body, Dr. Tassani studied the Chinese discipline of Tai Chi and held an official certification from the Yuntai Mountain International Martial Arts School, Jiao zuo, Hennan, China (2013). This discipline is more and more used in several clinical applications and in 2014 he was awarded the Beatriz De Pinos -AGAUR Marie Sklodowska Curie Cofound fellowship and moved to the Institute of Bioengineering of Catalonia, Barcelona, Spain, to study the influence of this discipline over breathing, posture, and management of stress. In 2016 he became a visiting professor at the Department of Information and Communication Technologies, Universitat Pompeu Fabra. Since 2023 he has been a lecturer, teaching biomechanics, statistical models, research methodology, and design of experiment courses, and he is part of the Nonlinear Time Series Analysis Group where he is exploring the nonlinear behavior of human movement.
