Who?

I was born and still live in Rome, although my family originates from the Marche region of central Italy, where I still spend part of the year (and can often be found taking long walks and treks outdoors). I am currently enrolled in the last year of medical school, making Medicine an obvious field of interest of mine (my preferred subjects being Internal Medicine in general, Cardiology and Palliative Care in particular). I have an interest in the techniques of medical teaching and learning, and have spent some time in the UK on an Erasmus placement during my undergraduate course. I hold a Certificate of Proficiency in English by the University of Cambridge and still visit the UK at least annually. From 1998 to 2003 I have worked part-time as an English to Italian translator and editor on the Italian-language editions of DC comics material, thus developing a professional level of knowledge of the field of American comics. I am a rather avid reader of both fiction and non-fiction, and in the latter category my main interest is history (with a focus on the emergence of European ethnic identities in the transition from Roman to Medieval times). More recently, I am starting to develop an interest in cinema.
