SiPMs and radiation damage recovery — PhD topical course

PhD-level topical course, University of Bologna, Department of Physics & Astronomy, 2026

PhD-level topical course on silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) and the recovery of radiation damage through annealing, taught within the doctoral programme on advanced detectors at the University of Bologna in 2026.

“Da dove vengono i colori?” — public outreach light show

Public outreach show, INFN Bologna / ePIC Italia, 2025

A hands-on light and colour show for children (ages 5–11) and their families, presented for INFN Bologna and the ePIC Italia outreach programme. Uses simple optics demonstrations to explain where colour comes from — the same physics of light detection that underpinned the SiPM-based Cherenkov detector work described elsewhere on this site.

Physics & maths tutor — high school

Private tutoring, Self-employed, 2010

I’ve been tutoring physics and mathematics to high school students since 2010, mostly liceo scientifico students preparing for the maturità and the early university transition.
