Dario De Santis (1980), historian of science, teaches "Publishing and new media" at the Department of Humanities and Cultural Heritage at the University of Udine. In addition to his academic research focused on the sciences of the mind and life sciences, he has always been interested in popularisation, particularly through new media. In this sense, he created the YouTube channel "Storie di scientifica ironia" (Stories of scientific irony), which now collects more than 200 videos dedicated to the history of science. He is the author of the book 'The Man-Makers. Storia della prima fecondazioni artificiali sul genere umano', Bologna: Pendragon, 2012, and edited the book: 'La filosofia del cannone e altri scritti di psicologia del soldato di Agostino Gemelli', ETS, 2018. As of May 2021, he is qualified as second-rank professor in History of Science and Techniques.
