Research

My main research interest is the study of protoplanetary disks, the environment where planets form. My work spans from the observational characterization of the grain growth process (Tazzari et al. 2016), to the study of the disks' structure (Isella et al. 2016, Fedele et al. 2018) and evolution (Ansdell et al. 2016, Tazzari et al. 2017). 

I mainly use sub-mm/cm interferometer like ALMA and VLA, which allow us to probe the cold dust residing in the disks interior.

I have recently developed GALARIO, a GPU Accelerated Library for the Analysis of Radio Interferometer Observations. Check it out and contact me if you have any question!
