I am a PHD student in the University of  Heidelberg (click here to locate Heidelberg in Germany). My institute is ITA (Institut für Theoretische Astrophysik) and I'm studing weak gravitational lensing.

Previously I have studied astrophysics (2005-2007) in the Department of Astronomy at  the University of Trieste (click here to locate Trieste in Italy). 

During my Master degree I studied the formation of the galaxies and in particular the cooling of the gas in the dark matter halos (if you are curious, see my Master thesis above !) .
