Seminars Organized:

I have been organizing seminars since I was a PhD student.

In Fall 2025 I organized the California applied seminars, a series of seminars part of the EU funded California Doctoral Network. This is a semnar seres on Deep Learning, its theory and its applications.
In Spring 2025 I organized the California applied seminars.
In Fall 2024 I organized the California applied seminars.
I co-organized the pure math seminars in occasion of the INI Program "K-theory, algebraic cycles and motivic homotopy theory". Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences (INI), University of Cambridge in 2022.
"Derived Algebraic Geometry". Co-organized with Marco Schlichting. Warwick Term 3, 2017/2018(link).
"Infinity Categories". Co-organized with Marco Schlichting. Warwick Term 2, 2017/2018 (link).

Mentoring:

I am currently (co)supervising 2 PhD students:

Catarina Coutinho, PhD candidate in Data Science and Computations. Expected graduation 2027.
Pietro Demurtas, PhD candidate in Molecular and Cell Biology. Expected graduation 2027.

I have been supervising also BSc and MSc students as well:

Diletta Sandroni, MSc candidate in Bioinformatics, Expected graduation December 2025.
Francesca Perlini, BSc in Physics, 2024.
