Valentina Presutti received her Ph.D in Computer Science in 2006 at the University of Bologna (Italy). Her background is software engineering and semantic technologies. She is a researcher and team coordinator at the Semantic Technology Laboratory of the Italian National Research Council (CNR) in Rome and Catania. Her current main research interests include experimenting on the role of frames in natural language understanding, and defining a formal language for representing ontology patterns. She played a pioneering role on the usage of ontology patterns in ontology engineering for the Semantic Web, and her work on this topic strongly influenced current developments in ontology engineering.  She has longtime experience in managing and working in research and development projects in domains such as open data, data integration, knowledge extraction, content and knowledge management, natural language understanding, and ICT for eHealth.  Some of the software projects that she has coordinated and/or contributed to can be found at stlab-lod and stlab-tools. She has published 80+ papers in international journals/conferences/workshops on topics such as ontology engineering, knowledge extraction and software engineering. She is involved in the organising and program committees of the main Semantic Web conferences (such as ISWC, ESWC, and I-Semantics) and journals. She has 10+ years teaching experience (University of Bologna, "La Sapienza", and Unviersity of Paris 13). She serves as consultant for private as well as public organisations.
