About me
I am a Florence Nightingale Bicentenary Fellow at the Department of Statistics in Oxford.
My research lies at the intersection of statistics and probability,
with a focus on hypothesis testing, statistical learning theory, and online learning.
In particular, I have been working on sequential testing via e-values,
the generalisation and expressiveness of over-parameterised models, and mean and parameter estimation.
Rewinding...
Until the end of October 2025, I was a post-doctoral researcher in the
AI&ML
group at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona, advised by Gergely Neu.
And before that? I completed my PhD in
Statistics at the University of Oxford, supervised
by Arnaud Doucet and
George Deligiannidis.
You can find my thesis here.
And before that? I was in Paris on an ENS (École Normale Supérieure)
three-year International Selection scholarship:
two years of Physics at ENS, and one of Maths at Université Pierre et Marie Curie
(now Sorbonne Université).
And before that? I studied Physics in Pavia (Italy) for my undergrad.
And before that? I was born and raised in a small town (Aosta) in the Italian Alps, right next to where Italy touches France and Switzerland.
And before that? No clue...
