My name is Giuseppe Altavilla, I completed my PhD at the Astronomy Department of the University of Padua (Italy) at the beginning of 2004. During my PhD he worked on a Supernova search at intermediate redshift and on the absolute calibration of type Ia SNe. As a postdoc I moved to Barcelona (Spain) within the european RTN project "The Physics of Type Ia Supernova Explosions".

Nowadays I am researcher at the Observatory of Bologna (Italy) and I am involved in the ESA mission Gaia. As a member of the CU5, DU13, I am concerned in the absolute calibration of the Gaia G-band and BP/RP photometric system and I am actively involved in the ground based observations aimed at this goal.
