Degree: Pisa (2022)
Supervisor: Valeria Rosso
Thesis: Misura della Concentrazione e della Distribuzione del ¹⁰B per la Boron Neutron Capture Therapy con Rivelatori Timepix
Room: 146, Ed. C

I was born in Padua in 1994. I attended the Liceo Scientifico L.B. Alberti of Abano Terme, where I got my diploma in 2013. I then enrolled at the University of Padua where I obtained a bachelor degree in Philosophy in 2016. After this first chapter of my education I decided to move to Pisa and attend the faculty of Physics, obtaining the Bachelor degree in 2020 and the Master's degree in 2022. My Master’s Thesis concerned the measurement of 10B concentration and distribution in biological sample for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy with Timepix detector. The supervisors of my thesis work were Professor Valeria Rosso of UniPi, Professor Saverio Altieri of UniPv and Professor Fabrizio Murtas of Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati.
My research interests focus on the study of detectors, in particular those of the Timepix family, and on their application in Medical Physics.
