Hello!

I am Pietro and I work as a PhD student at TUDelft, under the supervision of Timon Idema and Siewert J. Marrink. My research interests lie at the interface between biology, soft matter and computational physics. I’m especially interested in how biological and artificial cells can divide themselves.

Where I’ve Been

In April 2023 I graduated in Msc. Physics of Complex Systems at the University of Turin. I completed my Msc thesis under the supervision of Angelo Rosa at SISSA in Trieste. The focus of my thesis was on polymer models and MD simulations of nuclear chromatin. It was fascinating and deepened my interest in this field.

Beyond physics

I am also an active member of the non-profit research organization - Machine Learning Journal Club, located mainly in Turin, Italy. Our organization works on various projects related to machine learning and publishes research articles on our website.
