Teaching experience and interests

My teaching interests are in the broad field of Statistical Physics and Statistical biophysics. You can download my teaching statement here.

• • During the academic year 2007/2008 I have run the exercise sessions for the course of Phase transitions of Prof. De Los Rios at the department of Physics, EPFL.

  • During the academic year 2003/2004 I have run the exercise sessions for the course of Advanced Statistical Physics of Prof. De Los Rios at the department of Physics, EPFL.

  • During the academic year 2002/2003 I have run the course of General Physics I at the University of Florence, Engineering Faculty, as contracted Professor.

  • During my Ph.D., I have tutored a number of undergraduate students from the courses of General Physics I and II.

  • In 2002, I have been invited at the IP-Socrates summer school 2002 in Florence to deliver a review lecture on statistical analysis of DNA sequences.

At EPFL, I regularly supervise students doing their master thesis, or their fourth-year practical works (pre-master research work). Additionally, I also supervise students doing projects on numerical anaylsis.
