Pietro Carra
I attended the scientific liceum Ariosto-Spallanzani in Reggio Emilia, where I obtained my diploma in2012 with a mark of 100/100. I got my bachelor's degree in physics at the University of Modena and
Reggio Emilia, with a dissertation about the information transfer between groups of dynamic variables within complex systems.
I took my master's degree at the University of Pisa, with a final mark of 110/110 cum laude, specializing in medical physics. In particular, my master's thesis was about the development and experimental test of detectors and FPGA-based read-out electronics for the measurement of time-offlight.
My main research interests are scintillators and photodetectors in general and their relative read-out electronics, data acquisition systems and analog electronics. I am also interested in machine learning and artificial intelligence, with a special focus on implementing AI algorithms in hardware. I enjoy reading and listening to music….
