My experience is based upon the study of the CMB through observations done in the ACT telescope. I got involved in the ACT project during my Ph. D. studies, participating in the experimental phase, in the observations, from the development of the data reduction pipeline and in the analysis of the CMB maps produced by the experiment. These maps have been an important contribution to understand the properties of the CMB at small angular scales, helping to constrain diverse cosmological parameters. They have also served to detect a large number of galaxy clusters at high redshift, shading light onto the mysteries of the Large Scale Structure of the Universe.
