Francesca Rosi è ricercatore CNR dell’Istituto di Scienze e Tecnologie Molecolari di Perugia presso il Dipartimento di Chimica dell’Università di Perugia e responsabile scientifico dell’unità CNR-ISTM per il progetto FUTURAHMA.
Nel 2005 ottiene il Ph.D in Scienze Chimiche presso l’Università di Perugia con una tesi dal titolo “Spectroscopic studies for the conservation of mural paintings” dopo la quale vince un Post Doc per il progetto “Spectroscopic investigation on materials of Cultural Heritage interest” (2005-2008). Dal 2008 al 2010 ha collaborato con lo INSTM al progetto “Mid infrared vibrational investigation in reflection mode trough fiber optic sampling probe”. Ha poi ottenuto un nuovo Post Doc con il CNR-ISTM per il progetto “Spectroscopic study of the pigment effect on the stability of synthetic polymers used as binders in modern paintings” (2010-2011). É esperta in metodi spettroscopici avanzati per lo studio dei materiali di interesse storico-artistico con particolare attenzione alle tecniche portatili non invasive. Ha partecipato e partecipa a numerosi progetti nazionali e internazionali tra cui HEROMAT, IT@CHA, CHARISMA ed Eu-ARTECH.
