Davide Napoletano

Introduction:

I come from Milan, Italy.

I did both my Bachelor and my Master degrees at Milan University, and during my academic path I mostly studied various aspects of initial state radiation, and massive initial-state quarks. During my university years I worked at the Museum of Science and Technology of Milan as a Scientific Explainer. This job also took me all around Italy, in fact we designed a mobile class-laboratory to present to high-school students.

I also have a passion for music, having played the guitar for fifteen years. I have also been playing the violin for three years.

I am very happy to be a part of the Higgs-Tools Network because it gives me the chance to continue with the research in a very friendly environment.
