Angelo Mariucci was born in Sulmona, Italy, in 1978 and obtained his Ph.D. in Philosophy in Pisa in 2010. Over the last years he taught and worked in the Universidade Estadual de Campinas and in the Universidade Federal de Pelotas. He scurrently affiliated to the Universidade Estadual de Campinas. Professor Marinucci’s main research interests lie in theoretical biology, history of science as well as in its applications to ethics . He published articles and books on the history and philosophy of physics and biology (Marinucci 2011, Marinucci, Salvia, Bellotti 2021). Starting from the collaboration with the CIM ("Complexité et information morphologiques" CNRS - École Normale Supérieure, Paris), his main interest lies in elaborating a biology not reducible to physics.
