| Apr 15, 2024 | Thrilled to make a meta-update! This month, I have graduated from Bocconi University with a MS in Data Science! Thanks to my awesome supervisor Carlo Lucibello for 5 years of mentorship. Since February I am also interning at KAUST in Prof. Richtárik’s group, focusing on Optimization! |
| Dec 26, 2023 | Came back home for the holidays, happy to see family and friends. I will take some time to finish my Thesis and some documents I have been writing up, as well as continue with the Austrian and French research. Stay Tuned (hopefully) for updates on the Ph.D. application process and new destinations! |
| Oct 1, 2023 | very excited to share that I will continue as a Research Intern at Ecole Normale Superieure (ENS). I will be in Bruno Loureiro’s group and work on Stochastic Gradient Descent for structured data. |
| Jun 1, 2023 | super happy to share that I am a Research Intern at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA). I will be in Prof. Marco Mondelli’s group and work on Statistical to Computational Gaps, Information Theory, Algorithms and Message Passing! |
| Mar 31, 2023 | did two lectures. A long one about the connection between percolation and spin systems and a shorter one based on a paper about Statistical Physics applied to Neural Networks. Both are found in “talks” |
| Feb 1, 2023 | for the next two months, I am attending two wonderful Ph.D. courses. Statistical Physics by Prof. Marc Mezard and Graph Theory by Prof. Luca Trevisan. |
| Jan 15, 2023 | over with the winter session, gave one lecture about the Neural Tangent Kernel and a longer one about Optimal Transport for Neural Networks. Both are found in “talks” |
| Sep 3, 2022 | for the next three months I will attend a super Ph.D. course on Optimal Transport taught by Prof. Giuseppe Savarè |
| Aug 28, 2022 | very grateful to be selected to attend three Ph.D. courses on topics that I like. Incidentally, the Professors that hold them are also leaders in their respective fields. The course content and instructors are at the forefront of science, very exciting! I have also driven for 3000 km through Italy with my motorbike to make the most of the break. |
| Jul 25, 2022 | attended the First Italian School on Geometric Deep Learning. Selected for a Scholarship. |
| Jun 1, 2022 | started two self study projects on Statistical Physics and Geometric Deep Learning. I will begin with this StatPhys course and these GDL lectures. |
| May 20, 2022 | finished first year exams, gave a lecture on some aspects of the matching problem. Available in “talks” |
| Apr 15, 2022 | selected to participate to the Visiting Student Initiative. I will be mentored by Prof. Lucibello and Prof. Saglietti from the Computing Sciences Department of Bocconi. |
| Jan 30, 2022 | served as teaching assistant and gave an advanced session about Simulated Annealing for the Harvard Mini-Course on Computation organized by Ph.D. student Chi-Ning Chou. It is available in “talks” |
