Born in 1949 in Tarcento (Italy), Sandro Stringari studied at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa. He was assistant and then lecturer at the Faculty of Natural Sciences at the University of Trento. He is now Professor of Theoretical Physics at the same university. He worked as a visiting researcher at the Department of Theoretical Physics at Oxford during 1976 and at the Orsay Institute of Nuclear Physics during 1978-1979 and 1985-1986.
Sandro Stringari is a specialist in the physics of quantum atomic liquids and gases. He has published extensively in nuclear physics, low-temperature physics, cluster physics and atomic physics. In particular, he has combined theoretical methods from several disciplines to study collective phenomena in quantum multi-particle systems. More recently, he has turned his attention to the problem of Bose-Einstein condensation and superfluid effects in ultra-cold gases. He has organized several conferences and schools in various fields of physics. He is a member of the Editorial Board of Physical Review Letters. Since 2002, Sandro Stringari has headed the Research and Development Center on Bose-Einstein Condensation, set up in Trento by the Istituto Nazionale per la Fisica della Materia (INFM).
