Short Bio
Giovanni Saggio is recognized among the “World’s Top 2% Scientists” (Stanford University ranking, 2020-2025) and has been appointed “Distinguished Researcher” by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication (INSTICC). Having earned his M.S. degree in Electronic Engineering in 1991 and his Ph.D. in Microelectronics and Telecommunications in 1996, he currently serves as an Associate Professor of Electronics at the University of Rome “Tor Vergata,” where he also holds the National Scientific Qualification as a Full Professor. Professor Saggio holds the chairs of both Fundamental and Advanced Electronics within the Faculties of Engineering and Medicine at the University of Rome Tor Vergata. His international teaching record includes courses on “Wearable Technologies” at the Hautes Écoles Spécialisées de Suisse occidentale (HES-SO), “Business Opportunities for Wearable Technology” at the School of Management Fribourg (HEG-FR) in Switzerland (2022-23), and “Biomedical Signals” for TAIEX (the European Commission’s Technical Assistance and Information Exchange instrument) in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina (2018). Furthermore, he served as a Keynote Speaker at the International Joint Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies (BIOSTEC, 2023) and at the NUIST summer school at Nanjing University, China (2025). On behalf of the European Commission, he coordinated the “IDIH” (International Collaboration Digital Transformation Healthy Ageing) international expert group on “Preventive Care” (2020-22), which involved Japan, South Korea, the USA, China, and Canada. During the same period, he also served as a Scientific Consultant for the Italian Vice-Minister of Health. His professional excellence has been recognized with several prestigious accolades, including the “Promotori Tecnologici per l’Innovazione” award (Provinciattiva SpA, 2010), the “Cuore Digitale Award” (2020), the “Innovation Business Award” (National ANGI Award, 2020), and the “Golden Wheel” (Rotary Club, 2022). An accomplished author, Professor Saggio has written numerous monographs and 10 textbooks in the field of electronics; notably, as a reference author for CRC Press, his work has been adopted by 23 universities across four continents. He has authored or co-authored over 200 scientific articles and maintains significant editorial roles, serving as Topic Editor and Guest Associate Editor for Frontiers (Lausanne, Switzerland), as well as Guest Editor, Academic Editor, and member of the Section and Editorial Boards for the journal Sensors (MDPI, Basel, Switzerland). His research activity is primarily focused on sensors and analog electronics for medical and sports applications. In this capacity, he has served as the principal investigator and coordinator for scientific projects funded by the Italian Space Agency (ASI), Armaereo (Ministry of Defense), INAIL, and the Ministry of Health. A prolific innovator, Professor Saggio is the inventor or co-inventor of 16 patents and has founded three successful spin-offs: Captiks Srl (wearable devices for medical and sports applications, 2012), Seeti Srl (telemedicine and remote monitoring, 2015), and Voicewise Srl (diagnosis of medical conditions and emotional states via voice analysis, 2019). ...
