About me

Giulia is a Villum Young Investigator at the Niels Bohr Institute, Copenhagen where she is also co-funded by a Carlsberg Reintegration grant.

At NBI, she is part of the Young Stars and Planets section. Her research focuses on astrochemistry: the study of molecules in space - where they are, how they got there and how they are interacting to form more complex species.

She obtained her Ph.D. in Astrophysics and Planetary Science in June 2021 from the Niels Bohr Institute and the Centre for Star and Planet Formation (StarPlan), University of Copenhagen, where she was a member of the group of Prof. Jes K. Jørgensen. More @ Thesis

Giulia is a physical chemist by training. She got her M.Sc. in Physical Chemistry from the University of Copenhagen and her B.Sc. in Chemistry and Chemical Technologies from the University of Torino, where she belonged to the quantum chemical modelling group of Prof. Piero Ugliengo.

To study the interactions between gaseous and solid molecules, Giulia works with multi-wavelength observations of young stars and disks, using both space- and ground-based telescopes (e.g., JWST, ALMA, SMA, APEX). In particular her research is focused on the study of rocky planet-forming regions with JWST - More @ JWST & Publications

She is a referee of the peer-reviewed journals: Nature Astronomy, The Astrophysical Journal, The Astrophysical Journal Letters, and Astronomy & Astrophysics.

In her free time, besides enjoying public outreach, she plays the cello.
