About me

I am an Italian and Brazilian astrophysicist currently working at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucia (Granada, Spain), under the program "Severo Ochoa".

My research is focused on the long-term evolution of planetary systems, from their formation till the last moments of their life, in the framework of Galactic environment and evolution.

"The FUTURE IS BRIGHT !!"

With many more space- and ground-based Observatories the future of exoplanets is bright ! These "eyes-on-the-sky" will help us to know to pin down the true nature of planets outside the Solar System and to shed light on the formation and evolution of such exotic celestial objects !
