Group

Here are the amazing people in my group. Come visit and chat science with us!

Arianna Renzini
ERC Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow; [email protected]
Stochastic backgrounder, anisotropy locator, non-gaussianizer. Writes python packages, merges pull requests, dances acrobatic rock’n’roll.

Tristan Bruel
Postdoc; [email protected]
Binary black holes enjoyer, population synthesizer, star cluster simulator. Dream of identifying the host galaxies of black hole mergers. Addicted to endurance sports and eager to bring a French touch to local Italian rugby.

Alexandre Toubiana
Postdoc; [email protected]
Data analyzer, astrophysical modeler, GR tester. I try to decipher the mystery of gravitational waves between tap dance, cinema sessions, tennis games, and food exploration.

Rodrigo Tenorio
Postdoc; [email protected]
Long-signal searcher, stats geek, thinks that everything is a sinusoid if you look close enough. He enjoys crunching numbers on a GPU, playing bagpipes, and using Bayesian probability to climb up walls efficiently. Also, Fëanor did nothing wrong.

Caroline Owen
Postdoc; [email protected]
Inspiral modeler, fundamental physics explorer, gravitational-wave enthusiast. Loves a long walk. Prefers to be in the woods.

Philippa Cole
Postdoc; [email protected]
Dark matter hunter, gravitational wave decipherer, primordial black hole dreamer. Looking for signatures of dark matter in gravitational wave signals. Enjoys food-centric trips around the world and dancing to Beyonce.

Ssohrab Borhanian
Postdoc; [email protected]
Third generation forecaster, open sourcer, gravitational-wave counterparter, golden eventer. Exploring Milan’s restaurant scene without drinking coffee and meandering through Italy while taking too many pictures.

Nicholas Loutrel
Postdoc; [email protected]
Stationary phaser, burst calculator, catastrophe theorizer. Perhaps a secret agent. Still can’t understand why we talk probabilities while he lives in a deterministic world.

Costantino Pacilio
Postdoc; [email protected]
Black-hole spectroscoper, simulation-based inferer, pizza purist, coffee obsessed. Using black holes and neutron stars to understand our Universe. Reading comic books to explore parallel worlds. Listening to Bob Dylan to refresh my emotions.

Chiara Anselmo
PhD student; [email protected]
Black hole enthusiast, curious about gravitational waves. Outside of research, you’ll find her perfecting recipes in the kitchen, lost in books, immersed in anime, working out, or curating the perfect playlist.

Federico De Santi
PhD student; [email protected]
Machine learning keeps him busy, Gravitational waves keep him curious. Astrophotographer, always in awe of the night sky. When not dealing with the universe he’s lost in movies, games, or the keys of a piano.

Matteo Boschini
PhD student; [email protected]
Gaussian Processor, black-hole surrogator, Tolkien addict. Likes discovering new places, whether in the real world or in fantasy books. Often bothers friends with “simple” board games. Probably knows even how to build a nuclear reactor.

Alice Spadaro
PhD student; [email protected]
Glitch hunter, LISA responser, gravitational-wave lover. Cares for nature, addicted to adventure sports (surf!). Likes building fun stuff with Lego bricks and gets charged up with rock music. Curious to learn something new and explore the universe.

Giulia Fumagalli
PhD student; [email protected]
Eccentricity calculator, outlier nightmare, PN analyzer. Likes gravitational waves, black holes, and cats. Specialized in cakes, cookies, and any sweet treats (by far the best chocolate brownie in town!). A marathon every now and then just to let off steam.
