Giovani received a bachelor's degree in systems engineering and a master's degree in computer science from Monterrey Tech, and a PhD (Dr rer nat) in mathematics from the University of Stuttgart, Germany. He has held research positions at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH, Zürich), Monterrey Tech (ITESM), Max Planck Institute (MPI-MF, Stuttgart), Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI, Dublin), RFR (Paris) and Helmholtz Zentrum München (HMGU, Munich). Giovani joined Intel Labs Europe in 2013 as team lead for the FP7 project 619606.
Giovani's primary focus areas of research are mathematical modelling and multivariate statistics, particularly in the area of telematics, biostatistics (e.g. nanotoxicity, prognosis of breast and gastric cancer), signal processing (e.g. colour processing, scale selection), and mathematical modelling of discrete structures (e.g. tensegrity, biochemical pathways).
