Biography
In 2013 he graduated in Chemistry (Bachelor's degree, "Theoretical and Computational Chemistry" Curriculum) from University of Rome "La Sapienza" with grades of 101 out of 110. The thesis work subject was the study of structural and dynamic properties of halides hydration shells through a combined approach of classical Molecular Dynamics and X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy. In 2014 he graduated magna cum laude in Chemistry (Master's degree, "Inorganic and Physical Chemistry" Curriculum) from University of Rome "La Sapienza". The thesis work subject was the study of bromide hydration through a quantum approach, combining Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics with XAS. Since november 2015 he is a PhD student in the XXXI cycle of the Chemical Sciences school, which belongs to the "Vito Volterra" school, under the supervision of Prof. Paola D'Angelo.
