Alberto Zucchelli
About me
I am a geriatrician and, since 2022, an assistant professor in geriatrics and internal medicine at the University of Brescia, Italy.
I graduated in medicine and surgery in 2013, specialized in geriatrics in 2019, and earned a PhD in technology for health in 2022. My research experience includes positions as a researcher at the University of Brescia and as a research coordinator at the Aging Research Center (NVS - KI).
Clinically, I practice as a physician in the Acute Geriatric Unit at Spedali Civili Hospital in Brescia (Montichiari). I am actively involved with the Italian Society of Gerontology and Geriatrics (SIGG), where I contribute to multicenter studies as part of the Young Epidemiologists group.
Research
My main research interests focus on frailty and the development and validation of predictive models for older adults. This includes utilizing wearable technologies (e.g., accelerometers) and advanced modeling techniques such as optimization algorithms and machine learning. I also have research experience in multimorbidity and drug therapy for older adults.
Teaching
I teach geriatrics and internal medicine at the University of Brescia across several programs, including medicine, nursing, dietetics, physiotherapy, and education. I also collaborate with the Italian Society of Gerontology and Geriatrics, contributing to the teaching of epidemiology, statistics, and data analysis using R.
