[6][7][8] She also worked on assessing the usability and environmental impact of vineyard pruning residues as an energy source.

In Cambridge, Giorio‘s research was focused on determining the chemical composition and formation processes of secondary organic aerosols.

She developed a method for the quantification of the highly reactive Criegee intermediates produced by ozonolysis reactions in the atmosphere[10] and she studied the impact of aqueous phase processing on aerosol composition [11] In January 2017, Dr. Giorio became a researcher at the French National Centre for Scientific Research and later that year, became tenure-track Assistant Professor at the University of Padova.

As part of this testing, Giorio’s research group (The Giorio Research Group) used an ozone generator to produce ozone at controlled concentrations in a fume cupboard containing the indicators and sensors, which scientists at the Dstl could use as a baseline in their testing.

[16][17][18] In recognition of Giorio’s work on neonicotinoid insecticides, she won the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Environment, Sustainability and Energy Division Early Career Award[19] in 2021.
