Marco received his PhD in Experimental Rock Mechanics from University of Portsmouth, UK, in 2017. His project dealt with laboratory simulation of fluid-induced seismicity with application to volcano seismology. In addition to his PhD project, Marco contributed to set up the new Rock Mechanics Laboratory (RML) at the University of Portsmouth. He then moved to Göttingen, Germany, initially working as Project Manager at the geotechnical company Wille Geotechnik for 5 months and later, in 2018, joined the Applied Geology department at the University of Göttingen. Here Marco set up the Laboratory of Experimental Hydro-Geomechanics (LEHG) and is following the development of the GREAT cell project.
