Valerio De Santis received the Laurea degree (with honours) in telecommunication engineering and the Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering, both from the University of L’Aquila, L’Aquila, Italy, in 2006 and 2010.

He joined the Foundation for Research on Information Technologies in Society, IT’IS Foundation, Switzerland, from 2011 to 2013, holding the position of Project Leader and he was an Assistant Professor at the Nagoya Institute of Technology, Nagoya, Japan, from January to March 2015. He is currently an Associate Professor at the University of L’Aquila, L’Aquila, Italy. His research interests include biological effects of electromagnetic fields, electromagnetic compatibility, and numerical methods and techniques. He is a senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and Secretary of the IEEE-International Commission on Electromagnetic Safety (ICES)-Technical Committee (TC) 95-SubCommittee (SC) 6: IEEE-ICES-TC95-SC6. He is also a member of the International Electrotechnical Committee (IEC) TC-106: Methods for the assessment of electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields associated with human exposure.

Prof. De Santis received the Second Best Student Paper Award at the Bioelectromagnetics Society (BEMS) Annual Meeting, Cancun, Mexico, 2006, the Best Student Paper Award at the IEEE International Symposium on EMC, Honolulu, HI, USA, in 2007, the Leo L. Beranek Travel Grant at the IEEE International Symposium on EMC, Detroit, MI, USA, in 2008, and the Best Poster Award at the IEEE 18th Biennial Conference on Electromagnetic Field Computation (CEFC), Hangzhou, China, 2018.
