Acknowledgements
Everytime, writing the acknowledgments is always the most complicated thing.
I would like to gratefully acknowledge those who have contributed to this thesis and supported me during my PhD study.
First and foremost, I would like to thank my promoters, Prof. Alberto Signore and Rudi Dierckxs that gave me the opportunity to conduct this PhD project.
In particular, my deepest gratitude goes to to my first supervisor and supporter, Prof. Alberto Signore, who did teach me everything and more than he could think … hard work, punctiliousness, precision, attention to details that led me to a personal and professional growth, thank for the continuing support, suggestions and stimulus to work and confrontation.
A special thanks goes to Filippo and Michela, two fantastic colleagues and companions of travel, adventures, experiments ... thanks for the continuous support, both emotional and professional. I could tell so many anecdotes that have happened during these years, but what happens in the lab remains in the lab.
Thanks to Gerda for the understanding and help provided me whenever I needed it. Grazie alle mie splendide ed adorabili amiche, sempre super impegnate ma che al momento del bisogno sempre presenti.
Grazie ad Andrea, per quello che sei, per quello che fai, semplicemente perché ci sei, sempre e dovunque. Senza di te non sarei la persona che sono ora. Sei un amico, un compagno di vita, non potrei desiderare e volere di meglio, sei il mio uomo, uomo che mi rende la donna più felice di questo mondo.
Ultima ma assolutamente non meno importante, la mia famiglia … mamma, papà, Allegra, che dire?! Siete la mia forza, il mio porto sicuro nei momenti difficili e la felicità nei momenti gioiosi. Grazie, grazie, grazie per tutto quello che avete fatto e che fate continuamente, la persona che sono e tutto ciò che ho imparato è soprattutto merito vostro.
