I was born in Pescia (Tuscany) in 1993 and I currently live in Larciano (Tuscany), a small town near Vinci, the hometown of Leonardo. I attended the scientific college “Amedeo di Savoia Duca d’Aosta” in Pistoia (Tuscany) and graduated in 2012 with final mark 100/100. Then, I took both my Bachelor’s Degree (2015) and my Master’s Degree (2017) in Physics at the University of Pisa, both with 110/110 cum laude. During my Master’s Degree I focused my studies on Theoretical Physics, in particular Quantum Field Theories and their lattice formulation, and I developed a strong interest in Quantum Chromodynamics. In my Master’s Thesis work, supervised by prof. Massimo D’Elia, I studied the topological properties of the CP^(N-1) model using lattice Monte Carlo simulations. This theory is an interesting toy model to study non-perturbative QCD and its lattice formulation constitues an ideal test-bed to try new algorithms and new ideas to be used in LQCD. My plan is to continue the study of LQCD and of non-perturbative QCD during the PhD. My other interests besides physics are music (I play the electric guitar) and Japan, in particular japanese culture (both popular and traditional). |

I attended the scientific liceum Ariosto-Spallanzani in Reggio Emilia, where I obtained my diploma in2012 with a mark of 100/100. I got my bachelor's degree in physics at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, with a dissertation about the information transfer between groups of dynamic variables within complex systems. I took my master's degree at the University of Pisa, with a final mark of 110/110 cum laude, specializing in medical physics. In particular, my master's thesis was about the development and experimental test of detectors and FPGA-based read-out electronics for the measurement of time-offlight. My main research interests are scintillators and photodetectors in general and their relative read-out electronics, data acquisition systems and analog electronics. I am also interested in machine learning and artificial intelligence, with a special focus on implementing AI algorithms in hardware. I enjoy reading and listening to music.... |

I was born in Palermo on March 1993, where I got my scientific high-school diploma and my conservatory diploma in piano. In 2012 I moved to Pisa, where I got both my bachelor's and master's degrees (cum laude). In my master Thesis "New directions for Causal Dynamical Triangulations", supervised by prof. Massimo D'Elia, I investigated algorithmic and physical topics in the framework of Causal Dynamical Triangulations (CDT), a numerical approach to quantum gravity whose purpose is the non-perturbative renormalization of the Einstein-Hilbert theory in the asymptotic safety scenario via Monte-Carlo simulations; my contributions to this field are on one hand the development of a new algorithm to cure some slow modes in the simulations, on the other hand the introduction of new techniques of analysis based on the spectral properties of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on sampled configurations, which allow to define observables describing geometries at all scales, lacking in the foregoing CDT literature. I am interested on every aspect of the "Quantum Gravity Problem", and for this reason decided to estabilish the Comparative Quantum Gravity Group, made up of master and PhD students, where we weekly discuss various topics from different approaches, critically interrelating them (group's blog). On my spare time I also impart piano lessons and practice mountain biking. |

I come from Maiori, a small town on the Amalfi Coast, near Salerno. I attended the Science High School, Liceo Scientifico in Italian, in Amalfi. I moved in Pisa in 2007, in order to study Physics at the local university. In 2011, I obtained my bachelor degree, with the thesis Propagazione delle vibrazioni meccaniche nella pavimentazione stradale, while in 2017 I earned a master's degree in Physics, with the thesis Implementation of a laser profilometer for road texture measurements and its correlation with rolling noise. My current research is based on the further perfectioning of the profilometer and the development of a new model that relates texture levels and noise emission. I am also studying the possibility to develop railway pads made of rubber crumb from end-of-life tyres. My main interests lie in experimental physics, especially acoustics and optics; I am fond of any kind of data analysis, electronics and technology. I hope to learn more and more about these topics during my PhD studies. I love studying languages and cultures: I currently take Chinese classes at the Confucius Institute in Pisa, and have an HSK 3 certification - B1 Chinese level; however, I am planning to extend my knowledge to other languages in the future. I am also a teaching assistant for the course of Acoustics at the Physics Department, University of Pisa. During my spare time I practice Muay Thai and boxing. After a hard day's work, a nice video gaming session is more than welcome. My webpage is always up to date, and provides information about my latest researches. |
