Conferences
I took part to my first research conference in Baltimore (MD, USA) in 2010. I remember I was really excited to present my research project and meet new people. After this “research baptism” I had the opportunity to be part of different national and international conferences, visiting new wonderful places such as Atlanta, Ventura, Lisbon, Pavia, and Bologna, and meeting new amazing scientists, some of whom I am still collaborating with.
