Cosmological Constraints from the Planck satellite mission
After a brief introduction on Cosmic Microwave Anisotropies I will illustrate the recent results from the Planck experiment and their impact on the determination of several cosmological parameters.
In particular, I will focus on neutrino physics.

Constraints on the Physics of the Early Universe from the Planck Satellite Mission
I will review the constraints on the physics of the early Universe arising from the first release of the Planck space mission. In particular, I'll describe the constraints on the models of Inflation and on the level of primordial non-Gaussianity, which in turn allows to strongly constrain the (self)-interactions of scalar fields during inflation.
