Notably, he served as a Visiting Scholar at the Department of Computer and Information Science of the University of Pennsylvania from February 2016 to March 2018. Furthermore, he enriched his academic experience as a Visiting Researcher at the School of Informatics at the University of Edinburgh from 2009 to 2010.
Gianmaria Silvello worked on several European Projects, shaping the landscape of data integration and semantic modeling. His pivotal role spearheading projects like HEREDITARY and EXA-MODE underscores his unwavering commitment to advancing scientific frontiers. As HEREDITARY's principal investigator and project coordinator, Silvello is leading a consortium of 18 partners in designing a groundbreaking Polystore system for managing multimodal biomedical data, with a total project budget of €11,041,958.7. Similarly, his leadership in EXA-MODE, where he coordinated semantic knowledge discovery and visualization, highlights his ability to drive large-scale analytics initiatives for multimodal data.
From 2017 to 2018, served as a member of the Department of Information Engineering's council at the University of Padova. Since 2018, he has been a doctoral School of Information Engineering faculty member. From 2022 to 2024, has been a member of the International Advisory Panel of the Danish Data Science Academy, selected based on scientific merits. In 2019, served as an external expert on the evaluation committee for H2020 projects, in 2025 he was an external expert for the ERC starting grants.
Gianmaria Silvello received the Best Paper Award at ECIR 2018 for "Statistical Stemmers." In 2020, he won the IP&M Ph.D. Paper Award for "Gender stereotype reinforcement."
