GABRIELLA BOSCO

Gabriella Bosco was born in Ivrea, Italy, in 1973. She received the Degree in Telecommunication Engineering in 1998 (thesis on the non-linear effect of the propagation in WDM optical systems) and the PhD in Electronic and Communication Engineering in 2002 (thesis on the performance analysis of optical communication systems), both from Politecnico di Torino, Italy.

In 2000 she was a visiting researcher at OCPN (Optical Communication and Photonic Network) group at University of California at Santa Barbara (CA), directed by Prof. Blumenthal, working on polarization-mode dispersion monitoring techniques. She is currently an assistant professor in the Optical Communication Group at the Department of Electronics of Politecnico di Torino. Her main research interests are focused on the performance analysis of optical transmission systems and the application of DSP techniques in optical links. She currently serves in the TPC of two major international conferences: OFC (http://www.ofcnfoec.org/) and CLEO (http://www.cleoconference.org/home/). She co-authored more than 100 papers in leading journals and conferences.
