I obtained my PhD in Mathematics in 2017 at the University of Genova under the supervision of Nicola Pinamonti with a thesis on the construction of thermal states in perturbative algebraic quantum field theory. During my PhD I spent six months abroad, visiting Christian Gérard at the Université de Paris-Sud.
Between 2017-2018 I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Physics of the University of Pavia, where I was part of the Mathematical Physics group of Claudio Dappiaggi. During 2018-2019 I have been a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Mathematics at the University of Trento, where I worked within the Mathematical Physics group of Valter Moretti. Between October 2019 and February 2021 I was awarded a von Humboldt fellow at the institut für Mathematik of the University of Würzburg where I joined the Mathematical Physics group of Stefan Waldmann.
