All roads lead to....

I didn't have much time to write lately. The reason is the map below, which shows the places i'll be visiting in the next 45 days... it's going to be a very busy period!





I'm flying tomorrow to Boston for 10 days, then I will attend 3 workshops (in Bremen, Toronto and Lisbon), a friend reunion in Barcelona, a wedding in my home town, Cagliari, and each time touching base in Rome (where all roads lead after all!). I am also co-organizing the NRHEP Meeting and will chair one parallel section at Marcel Grossman Meeting in July. Fortunately, these latter two will not involve any travel, since the venue will be Sapienza for both.

I'll try to report more or less constantly during this crazy schedule, especially from the conferences which looks very interesting and i'm pretty much looking forward to attend.

Jan Steinhoff @ Sapienza

Last week Jan Steinhoff from the Albert Einstein Institute visited our group in Rome, giving a seminar on "Effective action for compact objects and universal relations". Over the weekend, we went for some city sightseeing. Here, from left to right, Jan, Paolo and special guest Matteo are visiting the magnificient Caracalla's baths.
