    Dusting off the star formation history of AGN hosts with SHARDS
    Recent works show that the restframe colours of X-ray selected AGN host galaxies at z~1 are no different from those of inactive galaxies once stellar mass...

    Evidence for sub-populations in Globular Clusters - their properties and relations with the cluster properties
    The last few years have witnessed a growing amount of empirical evidence pointing to the existence of multiple stellar populations in some Galactic globular...

    Formation and evolution of double-barred galaxies
    The general picture of galaxy formation and evolution includes bars as the main drivers of the internal secular processes affecting the lifetime of disc...

    From the blue cloud to the red sequence (and over the green valley): investigating the evolution of galaxies over cosmological timescales
    In the local universe, galaxies fall into one of two populations: a star-forming blue cloud and a red sequence lacking star formation. At redshift z ~ 1.5...

    Galactic Globular Clusters: Why should we care about them?
    Galactic globular clusters have always been at the crossroad of several investigations in both Stellar and Galactic Astrophysics. For long time, they have been...

    Galactic Palaeontology
    I will talk about how resolved stellar populations in the nearby Local Group dwarf galaxies have been used to study the detailed chemical, kinematic and star...
