''Decoding the memories of the first photons in the Universe''

I am currently a post-doctoral fellow in the field of cosmology at the University of Rome Tor Vergata. I have earned a Doctor of Philosophy degree from SISSA, Trieste, where I conducted research under the guidance of Carlo Baccigalupi, Nicoletta Krachmalnichoff, and Davide Poletti. My dissertation focused on the analysis and interpretation of B-modes for the detection of inflationary gravitational waves and gravitational lensing in the cosmic microwave background. My areas of interest in research include gravitational lensing of CMB, low-level data-analysis of CMB, dark energy models, Bayesian statistics, and AGN feedbacks. I am an active member of several research groups, including POLARBEAR, Simons Array, Simons Observatory and LiteBIRD, and am also exploring the application of ML algorithms in cosmological problems.
