Manager of the Cosmology Gravity Magnetohydrodynamics Research Group. My Research Areas are Primordial Cosmology, Classical and Quantum Gravity, Angular momentum transport in Astrophysics, Plasma and Tokamak Physics.

I am a Researcher at ENEA-Frascati (Department FSN) since 2006 and Lecturer at the Physics Department of "La Sapienza" University of Rome since 2001.

I am Co-author of about 260 publications, more than 180 of them are on peer-reviewed international journals. I have supervised about 20 Ph.D. Theses, 90 Master Degree Theses and 50 Bachelor Theses.

Master Courses held: 

• • 2001-2004 "Physics of Gravity''

  • 2007-2013 "Primordial Cosmology''

  • 2013-2018 "Astrophysics of the Primordial Universe''

  • 2018-2019 "Introduction to Quantum Gravity''

  • 2012-2019 "Plasma Electrodynamics''

Ph.D. Courses held:

• 2004 "Relativistic Cosmology and Beyond''

• 2004 "Quantum Geometrodynamics and Matter Fields''

• 2006 "From Classical to Quantum Gravity''

• 2011-2015 "Plasma Features and Stellar Accretion Disks''

• 2019-2021 "Plasma Physics''

• 2020-2021 "Primordial Cosmology''

I held a Training Course on "Plasma Physics and Tokamak Applications" at ENEA-Frascati (Department FSN) on September 2017 and April 2019.

I was appointed as "Expert in Theoretical Physics'' on 2000 by the Physics Department of Sapienza University of Rome.

I obtained the Italian Scientific Abilitation as Full Professor in Theoretical Physics in 2018.

I was member of the Faculty of the IRAP Ph.D. (International Relativistic Astrophysics Ph.D.) from 2004 to 2010.

I was the Coordinator of the CGW Collaboration (Cosmology Gravity and Wave Phenomena) from 2007 to 2016.

I am the Coordinator of the PLUS Collaboration (Plasmas in Laboratory and Universe Systems).

I am President of the Association "Lo Spazio nel Tempo''  having the aim to promote the research activity of young Italian Researchers.

I am co-author of two books: "Primordial Cosmology''  (2011, World Scientific) and "Canonical Quantum Gravity'' (2014, World Scientific), as well as of about 10 invited Monographs.
