About

Pietro Verzelli

Pietro Verzelli

I am a Senior Research Fellow in Prof. Manuel Zimmer’s lab at the University of Vienna, supported by the Argelander Mobility Grant, working on computational and theoretical neuroscience. My research focuses on the relationship between neural activity and behaviors. I am also affiliated with Tatjana Tchumatchenko’s Lab at the University Hospital Bonn, where I have been a postdoc since 2022.

I received my B.Sc. in Physics from the University of Bologna in 2015 and my M.Sc. in Physics of Complex Systems from the University of Turin in 2017. In my master’s thesis, I developed statistical tools to study neural activity, supervised by Prof. Laura Sacerdote. I obtained my PhD at IDSIA under the supervision of Prof. Cesare Alippi and Prof. Lorenzo Livi, with a thesis on machine learning for dynamical systems.

I mainly deal with the pointless aspects of important things.
