Roberta Palmeri was born in Catania, Italy, in 1989. She received the M.S. Laurea degree (summa cum laude) in telecommunication engineering from the University of Catania (Catania, Italy) in 2014 and the Ph.D degree in information engineering from Università Mediterranea of Reggio Calabria (Reggio Calabria, Italy) in 2018. From December 2017 she has been working at Università Mediterranea first as a Research Fellow and then as Assistant Professor. From October 2020 she is a Researcher at the Institute of Electromagnetic Sensing of the Environment, National Research Council of Italy (IREA-CNR), (Naples, Italy). Her scientific activities include electromagnetic scattering problems. In particular, she is presently focused on the development of new strategies based on inverse scattering for the synthesis of innovative devices as well as in inverse problems for diagnostics and phase retrieval. Dr. Palmeri was the recipient of the Best Italian Remote Sensing Thesis Prize from the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing South Italy Chapter in 2014, the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (Central and South Italy Chapter) prize in 2017 and the Young Scientist Award at the 2nd URSI Atlantic Radio Science Meeting in 2018.
