Daniela Sforza's scientific interests include partial differential equations and control theory.

Her research topics regard the stabilization of general second order integro-differential evolution equations with semilinear source terms. In particular, the problem to derive decay estimates for the energy of the solutions under the assumptions of analogous decay conditions for the integral kernels.

Her current research is mainly concerned with the control of evolution equations. In view of the duality between controllability and observability assured by the Hilbert Uniqueness Method due to Jacques-Louis Lions, in her research papers Daniela Sforza utilizes non-harmonic analysis techniques to obtain observability estimates for the solutions of evolution equations with memory.
