Alessia Platania was born on the 18th of October 1990 in Catania, Italy. She started her undergraduate studies in Physics in 2009, at the University of Catania. She received her Bachelor and Master of Science in Physics in October 2012 and 2014, respectively. In recognition of her master’s degree results and thesis, she was awarded the Degree Award "Roberto Giordano" 2013/2014. In November 2014 she started her doctoral studies at the University of Catania, under the supervision of Dr. Alfio Bonanno, and Radboud University Nijmegen, in the group of Dr. Frank Saueressig. Under their supervision she worked on Asymptotically Safe Quantum Gravity and completed her Double PhD Degree in March 2018, defending a thesis titled "Asymptotically Safe Gravity - From Spacetime Foliation to Cosmology". She became a PostDoc researcher at Heidelberg University in November 2017.
