Dario is an Assistant Professor of Sciences and Technology Studies at the University of Groningen, serving the multidisciplinary Campus Fryslân faculty at the Knowledge Infrastructure department.

For the faculty, he coordinates the minor Data Wise, teaches in the Bachelor’s program Data Science and Society, and establishes external partnerships.

Dario’s expertise lies in knowledge design, critical data, and digital humanities, focusing on the digital mapping of scientific organizations and cultural institutions.

Interdisciplinarity enables him to bridge the gap between experts from diverse fields, making him an invaluable mediator for cross-disciplinary projects and initiatives.

With Metis Press, he authored Mapping Affinities: Democratizing Data Visualization, a book about reinventing organigrams from a design-driven perspective.

The Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) awarded him a Ph.D. in Sciences after attending the doctoral program in Architecture and Sciences of the City.

Over the years, he has also held positions at MIT, Sciences Po, Panthéon-Sorbonne University, and the European Commission, lectured at CERN and Ars Electronica, and exhibited at MAXXI and Harvard Art Museums.
