I am a high-energy/particle astrophysicist with a passion for instrument development and education. My research activities focus on studying high-energy phenomena in the Universe, especially through observations in gamma rays. Some topics I have been working on are: particle acceleration in supernova remnants and massive-star forming regions, the highest-energy phenomena in pulsars and their relativistic wind nebulae, the origin and propagation of cosmic rays, diffuse gamma-ray emission, gamma-ray emission as a tracer of the interstellar medium in the multiwavelength context, and the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Universe. I am actively involved in the NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope mission and in the development of the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) Observatory.
