Abstract
Bio
After the PhD degree obtained at the University of Milan in 2018, I worked for a year at CINECA (Bologna, Italy) where I learned advanced techniques for the optimization and parallelization of scientific software. I came back to academic research in 2019, where I started a postdoc in the group Daniela Rupp at ETH Zurich. Since the PhD project, my research has been focusing on data analysis methods for diffraction experiments at X-ray Free Electron Lasers (XFELs), with a specific interest for the development of new and unconventional methodologies unlocked by advances in computational capabilities. Our research group under the lead of Prof. Rupp develops innovative experimental schemes to investigate structural properties and light-triggered ultrafast processes in isolated nanostructures with XFEL and High Harmonic Generation light sources.
