About me

Since June 2018, I am a researcher at the Visual Computing Lab at ISTI-CNR, in Pisa. My research interests include 3D shape analysis, computational geometry and topology, computer graphics, computer vision, healthcare applications.

Employment history

Formerly, I was a researcher at the Signal and Images Lab at ISTI-CNR (Mar 2012 - May 2018), and a researcher at the Shape and Semantics Modeling Group at IMATI-CNR, in Genoa (Mar 2006 - Feb 2012) .

Education

I got a PhD in Computational Mathematics from the University of Padua in 2006, and a Laurea Degree in Mathematics from the University of Bologna in 2002.
