In the last years he has collaborated as an external evaluator for national and inrernational funding agencies, such as MIUR (Italy), ERC (European Commission), ANR (France), DFG (Germany) and FWF (Austria).

He has been national scientific coordinator of the project PRIN-2007 about magnonic crystals (2007-2009), in collaboration with groups from CNR-IFN (Rome) and Ferrara University.

Previously, he was also national coordinator of the project PRIN-2003 about magnetic nanostructures modelled by focused ion beam (2003-2005), in collaborations with groups from University of Modena, Firenze and Ferrara.

In 2016-17 he has been the responsible of a sponsored research agreement funded by the multinational enterprise QORVO (2016-2017), aimed to the study of acoustic resonators based on bulk acoustic waves.

He has been scientific responsible of the research unit of Perugia, participating to the following national research projects:

- Progetto di Ricerca Avanzata SIMBRIS-INFM about spin waves in magnetic films and multilayers (1998-2000), in collaboration with University of Ferrara, Camerino and Istituto MASPEC-CNR of Parma).

- Progetto integrato CNR about the study of magnetic anisotropy in ultrathin films (1998-1999), in collaboration with IEQ-CNR of Firenze.

- European project STREAM, on the study of the effect of stress in microelectronics systems (1999-2002), in collaboration with ST Microelettronics and other six european partners.

- Project MURST-COFIN2000 about surface magnetisms (2001-2002), in collaboration with TASC-INFM-Trieste, Univ. of Ferrara e Camerino.

- European project "Landauer" (2012-2015), in collaboration with other four european groups.

- PRIN 2011 Project "DyNaNoMag" (2013-2015), in collaboration with other four italian groups (Univ. Napoli "Federico II", Politecnico di Torino, Univ. Messina, INRIM)

- International research project FUN-TOPS (2018-2021), in collaboration with other six european research groups, relative to topological materials, funded by the association of european metrological institutes (Euramet).

He has been involved as participant in a Progetto di Innesco of CNISM (2007-2010) aimed to the construction of a micro-Brillouin apparatus and in the European project "Magnonics" (2009-2012), in collaboration with other six groups from four european countries.

Presently (2022-2024), he is responsible of the research unit of Perugia participating to the PRIN-2020 project "IT-SPIN, Italian factory for micromagnetic modelling and spintronics" (2022-2025), in collaboration with other four italian research units (Uni-Messina, Uni-Cosenza, Poli-Bari and INRIM-Torino).

Moreover, through a a non-profit organization, from 2019 to 2022 he has been Coordinator of a three-years education program devoted to children of age 6 - 14, involving associations, schools, University and Science Museum of Perugia, named "Relazioni ed Eccellenze Educative sul Territorio" (RETE!), supported by "Con i Bambini Impresa Sociale" in the framework of the national fund to contrast child-education poverty.

Presently (2023-2025) he is coordinator of a further three-years education program to contrast child-education poverty for children of age 6-15 years involving a dozen of institutions, including UniPG, primary and secondary schools and six different municipalities in Umbria. The title of this further project is “Polo TeRritoriale di Eccellenza Educativa (p-TREE)”.
