Communication of Science

From November 2000 to June 2002 I had a stay at the School of Science Communication of the International School of Advanced Studies (Sissa) in Trieste, Italy. My research project, under the supervision of Stefano Fantoni and Pietro Greco, was on the history of Humanities Computing. At present, I participate in the Areaperta committee, organizing public lectures on science at the CNR research area in Pisa.
