Gabriella Ceci is a senior researcher at the Division on Regional Models and Geo-Hydrological Impacts, Institute for Climate Resilience of the Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change Foundation.

She works in the field of High Performance Computing (HPC) and Applied Mathematics, with extensive experience in advanced scientific computing applied to climate modeling and climate data analysis. Active in the HPC field since 2005, following a degree with honors in Mathematics and a PhD in Applied Mathematics, she has worked in both national and international research environments, contributing to high-profile scientific projects and large-scale applications.

Her international career has enabled her to collaborate within multidisciplinary and multicultural research teams, strengthening her collaboration, problem-solving and communication skills. Currently, her research activities focus on parallel computing, performance optimization of scientific codes and numerical modeling, with particular emphasis on hybrid CPU/GPU computing systems for climate applications and the efficient management and processing of large climate datasets. She has solid expertise in parallel programming, code profiling and debugging, and in the development of automated tools for climate data processing and analysis.

Gabriella Ceci is actively involved in international research collaborations and scientific communities, including the CLM (Climate Limited-area Modelling) Community, contributing to the development, optimization and application of regional climate models within coordinated international frameworks.
