• Short CV: I studied Biomedical Engineering at Rome University "Sapienza", I graduated in March, 2013. My thesis work, carried out in the ARPG group, has been performed in the framework of the TOP-Implart project, whose purpose is the realization of a hadrontherapy center at the National Cancer Institute Regina Elena, IFO. I studied, by means of Monte Carlo simulations with the FLUKA code, the distribution of the dose released by particles escaping from the beampipe in the environment where the linear accelerator will be installed, and I evaluated the efficiency of several shielding systems. I have been a PhD student in accelerator physics at the Department of Physics of the University of Rome "Sapienza " and I have worked on the optimization of laser-plasma acceleration techniques, for a possible use in hadronterapy.In particular, my PhD work focused on the study of the photoproduction process obtained by the impact of high-energy electron beam on solid target and of the characteristics of the proton beam produced by this interaction.
