Senior🎓
Top SchoolFranco Donati is an Assistant Professor of Industrial Ecology at Leiden University with nine years of experience bridging field data collection, AI integration, and simulation to quantify environmental impacts of products and durable goods. He leads ReLab CML, a hybrid physical-digital laboratory for primary data gathering that supports circular economy assessment and improves transparency in life-cycle inventories. His background spans industrial design to advanced industrial ecology (MSc/PhD trajectory across Politecnico di Torino, Delft, and Leiden), enabling a pragmatic mix of design thinking and rigorous environmental modeling. Franco’s research neatly combines hands-on fieldwork with tool-building for scalable data pipelines and decision-support systems, and he often works at the technical nexus of sensors, information systems, and lifecycle simulation.
