Luca Dell’Amico started his PhD in “Stereoselective Synthesis of Biologically Active Compounds” in 2010 under the supervision of Prof. Franca Zanardi. In 2013, he spent a ten-months research period at the Center for Catalysis of Århus University, Denmark, where he was introduced to the field of organocatalysis by Prof. Karl Anker Jørgensen. Luca completed his PhD with highest honours and the Doctor Europaeus mention at the Parma University in 2014. Shortly after, he moved to the ICIQ, Tarragona, Catalunya, joining the group of Prof. Paolo Melchiorre as a Marie-Curie cofund fellow. In 2017, he started his independent career at the Padova University as an assistant professor (tenure track). Since 2022 is associate Professor in Organic Chemistry at the same institution. In 2022, he was awarded an ERC starting grant to investigate new mechanistic pathways in organophotoredox catalysis.
His research spans from the design and study of novel organophotoredox catalysts to the investigation of stereoselective photochemical processes.
