About me

Am I a mathematician or a computer scientist ? I don't know...When I finished high school I was sure I would  become a mathematician, but then I changed my mind and I choose the Computer Science courses at Pisa University. When I got my degree I wanted to study Mathematics again and - guess what? -  some months before getting my degree   I won a competition for a position of  computer scientist, but at Department of Mathematics!

I had worked for 10 years as a network and system administrator  and  since 2008 I am  the Department of  Mathematics Information System manager.   I design relational databases and web applications  for teaching and administrative activities.

Some years ago prof. Franco Giannessi introduced me to the Medicine world and since then I have been collaborating with other mathematicians (Alberto, Fabio, Franco, Giuseppe, Isabella, Paola), biologists (Cinzia, Isabella, Silvano) and physicians (Chiara, Fotios, Filippo, Mauro, Ranieri, Sergio, Stephan, Teresa) from different fields.

May I say  I am a mathematician AND a computer scientist? I hope so...

In the spare time I used to play bridge (mathematicians should read Théorie du mathématique Bridge à la portée de Tous by Emile Borel) and someone said I played not badly, but I am getting old :( and bridge tournaments  are for young people (or retired people...) and now I play seldom if ever. 

Two years ago I started studying piano (from scratch), and I enjoy it!
