DESCRIPTION:Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) reside in the heart of virtua
 lly every massive galaxy. However\, much less is known about whether dwarf
  galaxies commonly host massive black holes at their centers. These system
 s are of great interest because they can inform us about how black holes f
 orm and grow over cosmic time. I will present the constraints on the seedi
 ng and growing mechanisms of SMBHs that one can get from studying a sample
  of X-ray-selected accreting SMBHs in dwarf galaxies. This sample has been
  compiled exploiting eROISTA observations and represents one of the larges
 t and least biased samples of such objects available to date.\nAbout the s
 peaker: My research interests revolve around accreting compact objects (r
 anging from white dwarfs to supermassive black holes at high redshift)\, w
 hich I observe mainly in the X-ray band. I obtained my PhD at the Universi
 ty of Florence\, where I studied tidal disruption events and quasars. I di
 d a postdoc at the Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge\, where I worked o
 n active galactic nuclei in dwarf galaxies\, AGN feedback\, and little red
  dots.\nIn the OKC: A5 CoPS corridor\n\nhttps://indico.fysik.su.se/event/9
