Computational Neuroscientist · Engineer · Maker

I obtained my Bachelor (hons) from the Università Politecnica delle Marche, then my Master Of Science (hons) from the Università di Camerino.

I received my joint Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge and the EBI, during which I studied multiscale modelling, multicompartiment neurons, biochemical pathways and their interaction on synaptic plasticity.

My Projects

A collection of work spanning computational neuroscience, sustainability, and engineering.

Academic

Neuronvisio — A Neuron Companion

A Graphical User Interface for the NEURON simulator environment with 3D capabilities. Makes it easy to select and investigate sections' properties with matplotlib integration.

Multiscale Modelling — Integrating Electrical and Biochemical

Developed an event-driven algorithm to integrate different simulators for multiscale modeling of a Medium Spiny Neuron with 1,504 explicit spines, where plasticity is computed from the integration of electrical and biochemical processes.
