Mr
I completed both my BSc and MSc at the University of Padua, where I specialised in Cognitive Neuroscience and Clinical Neuropsychology under the supervision of Prof. Antonino Vallesi and Prof. Ettore Ambrosini.
I continued my training between Brescia and Rome, where I gained experience in non-invasive brain stimulation and physiological/pathological ageing. Accordingly, I joined Prof. Carlo Miniussi's laboratory at the IRCCS "The Saint John of God Clinical Research Centre" and attended a postgraduate course in Psychogeriatrics at "La Sapienza" University of Rome.
At the end of 2017 I joined the Lab of Action and Body headed by Prof. Manos Tsakiris. Here, I have been investigating interoception with behavioural, physiological (ECG, BP, and Pupillometry), and non-invasive stimulation (auricular vagus nerve stimulation) techniques.
My current research interest lies in the field of interoception and embodied cognition. In particular, I am interested in understanding how interoception impacts on the expression of implicit race bias. To this aim, I use a combination of functional imaging and computational tools in my PhD project.
I am also interested in executive functioning and aging, as well as the use of different methods to explore cognition (e.g., TMS -EEG coregistration).
I teach statistics workshops at RHUL, as part of the course in Psychological Research Methods and Analysis (PS2010).
