He is the author of numerous academic articles, editor of three journals and several books, including, The Greening of Medicine, Holistic Living, The Poetry of Compassion.

In 2013 Professor Pietroni organised a conference in Shrewsbury entitled “Mental Health – How could we do better?” Following this conference he established a steering group of interested senior academics to explore the concept of “compassion”, its rigour and relevance in our societies. This led to a launching conference and the establishment of the Darwin Centre Trust (DCT) and the Darwin International Institute for the Study of Compassion (DIISC) in 2015. DIISC was established in December 2015 to act as the operational wing of the newly formed DCT.
