o Role: Founder and Organizer of the Women@DIISM community
o Description: Since October 2021 I have been one of the founders and organizer of events for the Women@DIISM community. The association aims to create opportunities for women in the tech sector, organize events to disseminate research and identify scholarships dedicated to women-tech and mathematics. On 25/11/2021 I was a speaker at the event "Artificial intelligence, smart sensors and complex systems", at the Palomar Bookshop, Siena. On February 11, 2022, I was one of the organizers of the event at the Aula Magna of the Rectorate: Women@DIISM for the World Day of Women in Science, Aula Magna of the Rectorate, University of Siena. The event was attended by more than 100 people, and the Rector. I was also the organizer of the First Women@DIISM Photo Contest. The winning photos are now on permanent display at the Department (in the corridor in front of room 101). In March 2023 we organized the orientation day "Think Scientist" for schools in the Val Di Chiana Senese. In addition, on May 19, 2023 we organized the event "Why Not Scientists?" at the Rectorate of the University of Siena (https://www.diism.unisi.it/it/eventi/scienziate-perche-no-spring-event-dedicato-alle-donne-nella-scienza). I created and maintain the website.
