My research interests range from the understanding of the early universe, the place and time at which the candidate unified theories of Nature may have been at work, to data analysis and model testing with cosmological observables. My researches are for one part driven by theoretical results and modern observational discoveries, and for the other part by simply having fun!

I have been involved in the Planck data analysis of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) while my current interests revolve around CMB polarization measurements, large scale structures (Euclid satellite), gravitational waves (LISA satellites) and forecasts for future 21cm surveys, plus a handful of other fun projects.
