Professional activities

As a professional physicist, I serve on committees and boards of various scientific bodies, conferences, workshops, research councils and peer-reviewed journals editorials, nationally and internationally.

Notably, I am currently elected as the Chair of the Collaboration Board of the international ALICE Collaboration at CERN/LHC (2022-2025).

I also enjoy taking part in public outreach events for school children and students, teachers, members of the general public and help stimulate people into studying or learning more about physics.
