About me
I am a postdoctoral researcher and adjunct professor of social psychology at the University of Milano-Bicocca, where I earned my PhD in 2019 with a project on dehumanization. During my doctoral studies, I had the opportunity to spend a period as a visiting researcher at Panteion University in Athens, working on dehumanization in political propaganda.
Since 2019, I have held postdoctoral positions at the University of Valle d'Aosta and the University of Milano-Bicocca. I also taught social and group psychology at the University of Trento. More recently, I was a fixed-term researcher and assistant professor at Pegaso University, gaining experience with digital teaching strategies.
Beyond dehumanization, my interests span a diverse range of topics, including gender stereotypes, socioeconomic inequality, and food sustainability. I predominantly use experimental and quantitative methods in my research, but I also integrate qualitative approaches to further explore personal processes and social dynamics.
