Education and career

Tuninetti is originally from Carmagnola, in Italy, where she was born in 1973. [2] She earned a master's degree in electrical engineering in 1998 at the Polytechnic University of Turin, with research supervised by Ezio Biglieri. She completed a Ph.D. in 2002 through Télécom Paris, working with Giuseppe Caire in Eurecom in Sophia Antipolis. [3] Her doctoral dissertation was On Multi-access Block-Fading Channels. [4] [5]

After postdoctoral research from 2002 to 2004 at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in Switzerland, in the laboratory of Bixio Rimoldi, she joined the University of Illinois Chicago in Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. She was an assistant professor until 2011, an associate professor from 2011 to 2016, and has been a full professor since 2016. She became interim department head in 2019 and has been the department head since 2021. [3]

Recognition

Tuninetti was a distinguished lecturer of the IEEE Information Society from 2020 to 2022. [3] She was named an IEEE Fellow, in the 2021 class of fellows, "for contributions to theory of repetition protocols and wireless interference management". [6]
