After years spent contributing to the activities of the ASME-IGTI Turbo Expo conferences (first as reviewer, then as co-chairman) I decided to apply for a becoming a member of the Gas Turbine Heat Transfer Committee. The atmosphere of the group has always fascinated me, giving the impression of being part of a large family that meets once a year. Expect that this family is composed by the most influential people in the gas turbine heat transfer 🙂
Sponsored by Riccardo, my nomination was accepted by the other members! I have to confess that it’s been one of the most thrilling achievement of my professional life. I’ll do my best to be worthy of such honor and serve on the committee with the same enthusiasm as the others.

Additionally, some friends of the University of Florence and I have been awarded with the Best Paper Award for a paper presented at the Turbo Expo 2019 in Phoenix. It was indeed a huge day!
