Description

Season 1 Episode 7

"I am a theoretical nuclear/high energy physicist originally from Italy. I am interested in strongly interacting matter under extreme conditions of temperature and density. I use numerical simulations to solve Quantum Chromodynamics, the fundamental theory of strong interactions, and I compare my results to the experimental data from the Large Hadron Collider (CERN). In my free time I like playing the cello, working out, reading and baking. During the pandemic I had to give up another passion of mine: traveling. I hope I can start again soon!"  

My Journey as a Physicist is brought to you by PhD student Bryan Stanley (he/him/his) and Prof. Huey-Wen Lin (she/her).
Season 1 features interviews with the 2021 INT Summer School on Problem Solving in Lattice QCD.

What is life as a physicist is like? It is a little bit different for everyone. On each episode, a different physicist discusses their research, what got them interested in physics, obstacles they overcame, and what a typical day as a physicist looks like. They also provide tips and suggestions for students who may be interested in studying physics and becoming physicists. Physicists are people with lives outside of the lab too! Guests share about their interests and hobbies outside of research. Be sure to listen if you are interested in becoming a physicist too!
