Work With Me

Thesis Topics

I regularly co-supervise M.Sc. theses at Politecnico di Torino, in collaboration with Links Foundation and the University of Turin (past and current theses). Topics I currently propose:

  • Blockchain protocol design and smart contract development
  • Decentralized data marketplaces and energy applications
  • DAO governance analysis and on-chain metrics
  • Privacy-preserving techniques (ZK proofs, MPC, FHE)
  • Layer 2 scaling solutions and rollup architectures
  • Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) and verifiable credentials
  • DLT-based secure data exchange for health and energy domains

If one of these interests you (or something adjacent), write to me with a short description of your background.

Research Collaborations

I am always open to working with researchers and engineers on distributed ledger technologies, applied cryptography, and decentralized systems — particularly on joint work in EU-funded projects (Horizon Europe, Digital Europe), cross-institutional research visits, industry proof-of-concept development, and the co-organization of workshops and academic events.

Visiting Researchers

If you are a PhD student or postdoc interested in a short-term research visit at Links Foundation or the University of Turin on DLT-related topics, get in touch. I have experience both hosting and being a visiting researcher (Brunel University London, CITIC Universidade da Coruña).
