Hi! I am last year a PhD student in Applied Data Science and Artificial Intelligence at University of Trieste. By background I am a Computer Scientist and I did my master and bachelor degree at University of Modena and Reggio Emilia and since then I have been passionate about multidisciplinary problems.
I am doing my PhD in collaboration with the research institute AREA Science Park and I am advised by Matteo Biagetti. During my PhD I also did a visiting period at INRIA in the Datashape team in Sophia-Antipolis and I collaborate with Mathieu Carrière.
My researches focus on applications of Topological Data Analysis to Artificial Intelligence models and biological data. I currently looking for Postdocs in multidisciplinary settings or opportunities in companies or startups.
Looking for opportunities in 2027!
