My research interests focus on high-energy astrophysics, particularly the study of galaxies, including star-forming galaxies and active galactic nuclei (AGN), as well as Galactic binary systems and their associated high-energy emission. I am particularly interested in understanding the mechanisms of particle acceleration and the production of non-thermal radiation through a multi-wavelength approach, combining radio observations with gamma-ray studies from the GeV to TeV energy range. My research also involves the use of current and forthcoming ground-based gamma-ray observatories, including Cherenkov telescopes such as the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) and the Southern Wide-field Gamma-ray Observatory (SWGO), to investigate the origin and evolution of high-energy emission in Galactic and extragalactic sources.
