I'm Paola, a Master's student in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics at LMU and TUM in Munich, currently completing my Master's thesis in the Quantum Field Theory group at the Max Planck Institute for Physics, supervised by Prof. Dr. Johannes Henn and Dr. Fabian Schmidt.

I also keep a running collection of notes and resources I've found useful along the way, and my CV is available here.

Education

• BSc in Physics, University of Trento
• MSc in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics (TMP), LMU & TUM Munich
• PhD, starting autumn 2026, Max Planck Institute for Physics — supervised by Prof. Dr. Johannes Henn, co-supervised by Prof. Lorenzo Tancredi

Research Interests

Broadly, I am interested in scattering amplitudes and Feynman integrals. On one side, cosmology and the EFT of Large-Scale Structure, where I work on higher-loop corrections — my Master's thesis is on the two-loop matter power spectrum. On the other, more formal aspects of scattering amplitudes, in particular positive geometries and surfaceology, which I'm looking forward to exploring further during my PhD.
