Andrea Piserchia was born in Padova (Italy) in 1989, he received both his Bachelor and Master Degree in Chemistry from the University of Padua under the supervision of Dr. Diego Frezzato. During the thesis period he focused his studies on the theory of stochastic processes applied to condensed phases, with particular emphasis to the Smoluchowski equation, and he focused on free energy calculations by means of non-equilibrium methods, in particular using Jarzynski equality. Then he won a six months scolarship in collaboration with prof. Fabrizio Mancin where he focused on the calculation of 13C-NMR relaxation times of alkyl-thiol chains tethered to gold nanoparticles by means of brownian dynamics simulations. Finally he moved to Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa where he obtained his Ph.D. in Methods and Models for the Molecular Sciences (2018, summa cum laude). Andrea has been a post-doc in the TCG under the supervision of Prof. Antonino Polimeno working on both MD simulations of confined space properties of water in reverse micelles and on the development of a scientific software concerning the stochastic modeling of semi-flexible systems in solution; SALEM model.
