Mario has experience in multiple areas of chemistry, physics, computation and biology. His time-tried strong, yet inspiring, leadership and management skills combine with his multi-disciplinary academic, industrial, and national laboratory settings, or any combination thereof. He feels as comfortable creating new research projects as well as managing established ones for Academia and industrial collaborators. Whether he manages a project for Academia or the scientific directions of a start up company, he focuses on the importance of oral and written communications in a timely manner, clearly stated goals, deadlines, and assignment of duties. Mario is open to listening to others and flexible to new approaches when change is required, adapting to newly found opportunities or recasting priorities for enhanced successful completion of existing projects. He is dedicated to his work, not just by working long hours but with focus and intensity. Mario feels equally at ease co-writing papers for scientific publication, or patent applications for advanced materials, methods or processes. He is a quick study, learning the fundamentals of new fields, such as experimental electrochemistry or biotechnology cell culture, for example, in the span of a few months, contributing individually or to team efforts. Goals: To bring the best in others, focusing their own skills when necessary or providing a sounding board when required. Lead a team of researchers in areas of material science, energy, catalysis, biotechnology, renewable energy towards generation of novel IP and scientific publications.Full Publication Record: http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=Uzc2eooAAAAJ&hl=enSpecialties: Management of Multidisciplinary Scientific Collaborations.
