Contatti
  • PhD in Astronomy (March 2009), Università degli studi di Firenze 
  • Research fellow at INAF-Osservatorio Astronomico di Padova [2009 -- 2011 and 2015--2018]

  • Staff researcher at INAF - Osservatorio Astronomico di Padova since 2018

Research interests: stellar astrophysics, resolved stellar populations, stellar clusters (open clusters, globulars, moving groups), high-resolution optical and infrared spectroscopy, abundances of light chemical elements, alpha, iron-peak, and neutron-capture elements. Formation and chemical evolution of the Galaxy. High-contrast imaging observations for the detection and characterisation of extrasolar planets (massive giant planets/brown dwarf companions on outer orbits).
