I am an Italian Ph.D. student working at ENEA, the Italian Energy, New Technology and Environment Agency. My interests are Evolutionary Computation and—more in general—biologically-inspired algorithms applied to Optimization problems. I'm currently involved in projects about Evolutionary Computation, bio-informatics and energy-related problems.
