In 1982 Daniela Sforza got her degree in Mathematics at the University of Bari.

In 1983 she won a four-year fellowship to attend the courses of Dottorato di Ricerca in Matematica at the University of Pisa.

In 1988 she became Dottore di Ricerca in Matematica with a thesis entitled "Integro-differential equations in Banach spaces", written under the supervision of professor Giuseppe Da Prato (Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa).

In the years 1987-88, 1988-89 and 1989-90 she won three annual fellowships of the Istituto Nazionale di Alta Matematica (INdAM) to continue her research at the University of Pisa under the supervision of professor Giuseppe Da Prato.

In 1990 Daniela Sforza became Researcher of Mathematical Analysis at the Department of Mathematics, University of Pisa.

Since 1992 she is Associate Professor of Mathematical Analysis at Sapienza University of Rome:

1992-2009 at the Department of Methods and Mathematical Models for Engineering,

2010-present at the Department of Basic and Applied Sciences for Engineering.

Daniela Sforza studied integro-differential equations in the abstract setting of Hilbert spaces. By using the approach of the Semigroup Theory, she established existence of solutions and well-posedness of integro-differential equations when the Laplace transform of the integral kernel satisfies suitable assumptions.

Her current scientific interests include partial differential equations and control theory.

Daniela Sforza has been invited to deliver lectures at international conferences and universities.

She participated in the organization of international conferences.

In 2006 she visited as invited professor the University of Metz (France). In 2019 she was visiting at Graduate School of Mathematical Sciences, The University of Tokyo (Japan),

Daniela Sforza has collaborated as peer reviewer with several international mathematical journals, such as:

Journal of Differential Equations,

Applied Mathematics and Optimization,

Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications,

Nonlinear Analysis Series A: Theory, Methods and Applications,

Mediterranean Journal of Mathematics,

Advances in Nonlinear Analysis.
