About
Valerio Galli is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of food science, electronics, and robotics, whose work is defining the emerging field of edible electronics. His research focuses on developing functional electronic devices and robotic systems constructed entirely from food-derived materials, combining engineering ingenuity with sustainability and biocompatibility. Galli's most cited contribution, "An Edible Bistable Tilt Sensor Enabling Autonomous Operation of a Partially Eatable Rolling Robot" (2023, 32 citations), demonstrated that fully operational robotic systems could incorporate ingestible electronic components — a landmark proof of concept. Complementing this, his work on sprayable conductive edible coatings for piezoresistive strain sensing (27 citations) expanded the toolkit of edible sensor technologies. Through his involvement in the EU-funded ROBOFOOD project, Galli has championed diagnostic edible devices for gastrointestinal monitoring, pushing the boundaries of healthcare technology. His 2025 work on chitosan-gated organic transistors signals his ongoing drive toward integrated edible logic circuits. Collectively, Galli's research addresses critical concerns around e-waste and environmental sustainability while opening transformative possibilities for medical diagnostics, food monitoring, and next-generation soft robotics.
