I am currently working as a Biomedical Engineer at the European Space Agency (ESA), ensuring astronaut health and well-being by providing crucial medical operational, engineering, and project support. I am involved in the implementation of ESA crew medical activities throughout pre-flight, in-flight, and post-flight mission phases, including dedicated support for ESA payload operations, notably within the Columbus module and beyond.Before this role, I was an Intern at the European Space Agency (ESA), working on an InSitu Resource Utilization project of solar pyrolysis of regolith for oxygen extraction. I am passionate about space exploration and the Lunar and Martian environment, Planetary Science field, Astrobiology and Human and Robotic Missions. I worked on In Situ Resource Utilization projects, and I have sector-specific knowledge of Aerospace Engineering, Planetary Exploration, Geology of Planetary Bodies, Astrophysics and broad space sector knowledge through ISU.After my Bachelor in Aerospace Engineering, I attended a two-year Masters in Astrophysics and Cosmology at the University of Padua. During my Masters I was involved in several astrophysical research projects and I trained on coding environment, scientific libraries for data science, analysis and machine learning during the ESCAPE Summer School on Data Science. To further expand my horizon, I successfully completed a thesis project at the University of Leiden for six months, cooperating with research groups to develop a code program for the study of the habitability of planets in star clusters via lithopanspermia.In 2022 I have been accepted into the exclusive Master of Space Studies (MSS) program at ISU, where I have had the opportunity to expand my space sector knowledge. As part of the MSS, I developed my own individual project on the spectroscopic study of the growth of hydroponic plants on Lunar soil simulant, with the aim to provide important constraints on the choice of agricultural system for future planetary missions. In parallel, I was the project leader of a year-long team project involving 18 ISU students, investigating the feasibility of future human missions to Venus. Through this experience I gained valuable experience in leadership, team work and project management.I am curious, open-minded and what drives me most is my ambition to contribute to space exploration and my life-long desire to further my knowledge.
