Since 1995 he was an assistant professor with the Energetics Department (presently DIIIE, Department of Industrial and Information Engineering and Economics) of the University of L'Aquila, where he currently is an associate professor. His research interests include flow visualization and heat and mass transfer, optical metrology and non destructive testing, thermography and digital image analysis. In these fields he has published more than 200 papers in peer reviewed international journals and national and international congresses. A member of UIT (Italian Union of Thermal-Fluid Dynamics), OSA and Sigma Xi, D. Ambrosini is also in the Editorial Board of the journal Optics and Lasers in Engineering. In 2013 he was elevated to the rank of OSA Senior member.
He was the recipient (with G. Schirripa Spagnolo) of the 2001 SPIE Kingslake Medal and Prize and one of the recipients of the 2016 OSA Outstanding Reviewer award.
