Biography

I am currently assistant professor in the group of prof. Renato S. Gonnelli at the Department of Applied Science and Technology of Politecnico di Torino. My research work is grounded in condensed matter physics, studying the electronic properties of advanced materials at low temperatures under the application of extremely high electric fields. My current focus is the control of exotic quantum phases – such as superconductivity and charge-density waves – by means of electrostatic and electrochemical charge doping.
