My name is Aquiles Carattino . I am a physicist who decided to resign to a PhD opportunity to work in industry for a year. I then moved to The Netherlands to start, finally, a PhD . Once done, it was time to move out of academia. I decided to start my own business: things I've done .

Besides my scientific interests in the topics of microscopy, optics and nanoparticles, I always enjoyed programming. From Instrumentation software to websites. I am concerned with, what I consider, are the major challenges of my generation: climate and the environment, online privacy, digital education.

I think and discuss about many topics, including: open source , technology transfer , user privacy online , and generally speaking, how to make a better world .

Free Time and Hobbies

Of course, not everything in my life is about thinking solely about the biggest problems and challenges. As any healthy person, I do have hobbies and interests that sometimes do not overlap with my professional interests. I dance Tango . I like building websites , such as this one. I like programming in Python , and recently started picking up sailing .
