Current Research
My research activity is focused on the investigation of the physical conditions of matter around black holes and it is mainly based on the analysis and interpretation of X-ray data from different classes of active galactic nuclei (AGN). I try to combine complementary pieces of information from the investigations of both AGN and stellar black holes to probe the unification of black hole systems.
Teaching Focus
Dr. Gliozzi teaches primarily science core astronomy courses on the solar system, and on stars, galaxies and cosmology, with the collaborative and active learning approach.
