Hi! I'm Julia Favaro and I'm currently a Physics Master Student at University of Pisa in Italy. I would like to have a career in astroparticle physics, and I am especially interested in multi-messenger astronomy. When I'm not working, you'll often find me doing science outreach, or taking part in local theaters.

**Project description** This project focuses on the development and optimization of data selection strategies for ProtoDUNE liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) data, with a special emphasis on cosmic ray event reconstruction, for eventual online trigger development. After introducing the DUNE scientific program and the motivation for using LArTPC technology, we will briefly discuss the unique readout and signal features of the ProtoDUNE Horizontal Drift (HD) detector. Using simulated and real cosmic data, we explore our data topologies and clustering approaches..
