Biografia

Giovanni Amendola è nato a Paola (Cosenza) il 19 luglio 1983. Ha conseguito presso l’Università della Calabria la laurea triennale in matematica nel 2005 (con lode), la laurea magistrale in matematica nel 2013 (con lode e menzione di merito) e il dottorato di ricerca in matematica ed informatica nel 2017. Nel 2017 ha lavorato come research associate presso il Laboratory for Foundations of Computer Science dell’Università di Edimburgo. Attualmente è ricercatore presso il Dipartimento di Matematica e Informatica dell’Università della Calabria, dove è stato docente per gli insegnamenti di Fondamenti di informatica, Programmazione ad oggetti, Calcolo delle probabilità e statistica e Matematica per l’analisi dei dati. Attualmente è docente di Elementi di informatica teorica (primo anno del Cdl in Informatica) e di Tecniche informatiche per l’analisi di dati biologici (terzo anno del Cdl in Scienze e Tecnologie Biologiche). La sua ricerca verte principalmente sull’intelligenza artificiale basata sulla logica matematica e sui formalismi per la rappresentazione della conoscenza e del ragionamento. Due dei suoi articoli di ricerca sono stati premiati con il Best paper award (nel 2017 e nel 2019) alla International Conference on Logic Programming. È abilitato come professore di seconda fascia nei settori concorsuali 01/B1 di Informatica (dal 14 gennaio 2020) e 01/A1 di Logica matematica e matematiche complementari (dall'8 luglio 2020). Inoltre ha conseguito con lode il baccalaureato e la licenza in teologia presso l’Istituto Teologico Calabro e il dottorato in teologia presso la Pontificia Università Lateranense (summa cum laude), occupandosi di tematiche di teologia fondamentale e del rapporto tra scienze, filosofia e teologia. Per le Edizioni Studium ha pubblicato il volume interdisciplinare Antropo-Logos. La ragione al crocevia di intelligenza artificiale, razionalità scientifica, pensiero filosofico e teologia cristiana.
