Back to University

After long reflection, I decided to leave MindEarth after one year and to go back to the University to start a PhD.

Despite being very happy with my job from both professional and personal point-of-view, I realized that my decision to interrupt my research career was hurried and mainly dictated by post-thesis stress.

I felt to have a lot of energy to dedicate to a research activity and I realized that a PhD opportunity was quite unique. My reseach group is lead by Professor Paolo Tonella and it is located in Università della Svizzera Italiana (USI), in Lugano. My research will be related to Deep Learning and LLMs, with a specific focus on Adversarial/Poisoning attacks and the usage of LLMs for code generation.

I think that the year spent in MindEarth will be extremely useful for my PhD and for my career and, at the same time, I realized that there is nothing wrong to retrace your steps and to make a different choice, if you think that this is the best for you! I hope that this experience will make the difference in my future!
