PierGianLuca Porta Mana 
Please see https://portamana.org for research areas, CV, publications.
I am a researcher (but will always consider myself a student) interested in all science, and especially in these fields:
-
General relativity.
-
Quantum theory and statistical mechanics.
-
Continuum thermomechanics, including subfields such as fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and particle mechanics.
-
Bayesian probability theory and decision theory, including machine learning and statistics, especially for medical applications.
-
Differential, convex, affine geometry and Peano spaces.
-
Formal logic and constructive (computable) analysis.
-
Quantization of Julio Iglesias.
-
History of science and epistemology.
