Teaching

Bachelor and Master thesis projects

I offer thesis projects related to ongoing research activities in: cosmic structure formation, galaxy clusters, gravitational lensing and cosmology, ground and space based optical and infrared surveys.

Lecture notes

These lecture notes contain the material presented on the board during the lectures, see Youtube channel. They are not meant to be a script, look for the suggested readings and scripts as well.

Tonale Winter school on Cosmology

The Tonale Winter School on Cosmology is addressed to advanced masters students, graduate students enrolled in a PhD program, and junior postdocs. It takes place at the ski resort Passo del Tonale (Italy) during the first week of December and cover topics relevant to theoretical and observational cosmology, "Theory for Observers & Observations for Theorists". The School is part of a series that started in 2007. School website
