My work connects medical oncology, clinical AI research and software development. This page collects the clinical training, research collaborations and independent projects behind it.
Medical oncology training across Milan’s cancer centres and hospital wards.
Nov 2023 – present
Medical Oncology Resident, Milan
Thoracic oncology, immunotherapy and Phase I–III clinical research. Clinical activity includes approximately 20–30 patients per week in outpatient and inpatient multidisciplinary settings.
Work within a unit running approximately 15–20 concurrent trials, with involvement in screening, enrolment, informed consent, follow-up, SAE documentation and structured clinical data capture.
May – Oct 2023
Medical Oncology Resident, Breast Unit
Breast cancer care and Phase I–II trials, with exposure to dose-escalation strategies and safety data collection in early drug development.
May 2022 – Apr 2023
Medical Oncology Resident, ward and GI oncology
Inpatient care, diagnostic reasoning and multidisciplinary management across internal medicine and gastrointestinal oncology. Developed the ward handover system detailed below.
Nov 2021 – Apr 2022
Medical Oncology Resident, initial rotation
Ward-based care of patients with solid tumours. Participation in the regional COVID-19 vaccination campaign, including counselling, administration and safety monitoring.
One shared workflow for 25 beds.
I replaced three mutually locking shared files with one document per bed, allowing ten physicians to update records in parallel. A master document assembled the ward’s 25 beds into a formatted handover.
Built in Word within the ward’s existing infrastructure, the system remained in use after my rotation.
Clinical research alongside an independent programme on AI evaluation and governance.
My clinical research includes cancer therapeutics, molecular profiling and the use of language models with oncology records. I collaborate with AI-ON-LAB on clinical NLP and LLM benchmarking, and contributed clinical data management to the CAVE-2 trial within the GOIM network.
My independent work asks how a clinical AI system can be evaluated, constrained and held accountable as its behaviour changes. These conceptual and methodological papers also inform the software I build.

My current applications include Callimachus and an AIFA registry workflow tool. The projects below provide the earlier technical background.
Oncology registry workflow automation.
A Windows application for repetitive documentation in AIFA drug-monitoring registries and read-only reconciliation with MedWeb. I built it for internal use by oncology trainees, with record-level checks and direct operator control.
CSV worklists drive prescription registration, reassessment and treatment-closure workflows. Cross-system checks identify dates or treatment records requiring review before they enter an operational queue.
Local run histories, HTML reports and interruption recovery keep completed and unresolved tasks separate. Operators can take over, resume or skip a case.
Python, Playwright, Tkinter, SQLite; Windows desktop distribution.
I started at sixteen with a PHP/MySQL image-hosting component for a gaming fansite, including file validation and hash-based deduplication. During university I built a Node.js/PostgreSQL Discord bot with dynamic commands and per-user rate limits.
My current work combines Python applications, SQL databases and web infrastructure. I use AI-assisted coding with manual review, and manage remote development sessions through SSH and tmux, including from my phone.
Writing about research culture, and building the infrastructure to publish it independently.
An independent, diamond open-access journal exploring research culture through scientific satire. Its articles use academic formats to examine how evidence, publication incentives and evaluation shape medicine and science.
I manage the editorial process and the technical platform: journal policies, manuscript assessment, reviewer coordination, copyediting and publication, alongside the OJS installation and metadata workflows.
ISSN 3103-473X. Semiannual publication. No article processing charges.
Founder & technical lead
A non-commercial initiative offering pro-bono OJS hosting for small, independent academic journals. The work covers installation, editorial workflows, metadata exposure and email delivery, with editorial responsibility retained by each journal.
OJS, PHP, DNS, OAI-PMH, DOI metadata, Amazon SES, SPF, DKIM and DMARC.
Visit JSENetworkI have reviewed manuscripts for BMC Medicine, Journal of Cancer Policy and The Oncologist (2023), Scientific Reports (2024), and BMJ Digital Health & AI (2026).
Published comments and eLetters in JAMA, Science and BMJ Open address clinical AI oversight, commercial influence, medical training and oncology research.

2021 – present
University of Milan
Postgraduate training in oncology, clinical research methodology and biostatistics. Expected completion in November 2026.
July 2021
University of Milan
Experimental thesis on radiogenomics in NSCLC, integrating imaging features, tissue molecular profiling and liquid biopsy. The work included 130 retrospective patients and a prospective cohort of 72 patients.
Professional training includes Good Clinical Practice and Basic Life Support and Defibrillation (BLSD).
Professional memberships AIOM, ESMO and ASCO.
Languages Italian, native; English, professional proficiency (C2).
I have practised resistance training since 2009 and have a long-standing interest in exercise physiology, health behaviour and wearable technology, including early use of the Microsoft Band 2.
