From 1992 to 1997 he was the Italian coordinator of the European Network Astroparticle Physics. From 1996 he headed the astroparticle physics group at the INFN (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare) in the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso , where he has been research director since 1991.

In 2010 he received the Markow Prize in particular for the development of a theory of the formation of cosmic neutrinos of very high energies. In 1991 he received the Humboldt Research Award . Beresinski was awarded the Premio Enrico Fermi for 2017 .

Beresinski works mainly as a theorist.

From 1983 to 1997 he was on the editorial board of Astronomy Letters and from 1992 editor of Astroparticle Physics.
