RESEARCH
As a summary of my research activity, I have authored 22 scientific publications (20 in peer-reviewed journals and the 2 most recent ones as pre-prints in Arxiv), 13 of them as first author, 2 as last author, 13 as co-corresponding, and 9 in collaboration with experiments. My works have been cited circa 300 times and my H-index is 8 according to Google Scholar. Many of these publications have been presented at conferences. I have 3 inventions protected by registered patents. I have obtained circa 310 000 € in competitive calls of International Research Agencies and I have received different awards for my research and outreach activities.
