Biography
Received his PhD in Physics from the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) in Munich in 2015, developing new quantum simulation experiments with ultracold atoms in optical lattices within the group of Immanuel Bloch. Since 2015 he has worked at the European Laboratory of Nonlinear Spectroscopy (LENS) as a Marie Sklodowska-Curie fellow and later as CNR-INO researcher, co-leading experiments on strongly correlated Fermi gases. In 2021 he was awarded an ERC Starting Grant with a project focusing on quantum simulating fermionic many-particle systems. Since May 2021 he is associate professor at the University of Trieste and he is leading the newly established Artificial Quantum Systems (ArQuS) laboratory, a joint effort between CNR and the University of Trieste.
