Biographical sketch
Paolo Gorla received his undergraduate degree in Physics from University of Milano where he worked with Prof. Ettore Fiorini on neutrinoless Double Beta Decay (DBD) search. He got his Ph.D. from University of Milano-Bicocca working with Dr. Oliviero Cremonesi on the reduction of the radioactive background in macro-bolometers for DBD search in the CUORE project. The enhanced detector design Paolo developed in his Ph.D. thesis was adopted as official setup in the CUORE project.
Before joining the LNGS research division, Paolo was staff scientist in INFN - Roma 2 and Temporary Staff at LNGS.
He currently works on the search for neutrinoless DBD with the CUORE experiment.
Paolo is interested in designing and building novel detectors for the next generation of neutrino and rare events experiments.
