Dottorando

Education and roles. I am a speech language therapist and psychologist currently pursuing a PhD in Psychology at the University of Pavia. I received a BSc in Speech and Language Therapy in 2013 at the University of Milan and a BSc in Psychology in 2016 at the University of Milano-Bicocca in Milan. I pursued a MSc in Clinical Psychology and Neuropsychology across lifespan in 2019 at the University of Milano-Bicocca. From 2019 to 2021 I carried out a research traineeship and assistantship at the Developmental Psychopathology BabyLab of the IRCCS E. Medea Scientific Institute (Bosisio Parini, Lecco). From July 2021 I obtained a position as a research assistant at the Developmental Psychobiology Lab of the IRCCS Mondino Foundation (Pavia). In October 2023 I enrolled as a Graduate Student in the PhD Program in Psychology at the University of Pavia where I conduct research in the field of developmental neuroscience under the supervision of Prof. Provenzi. Research overview. My research interests focus on infants’ socio-communicative development, applying a two-person approach that harvests from the ecologically valid context of early interaction. In my research activity I use methods from behavioral science, infant research and neuroscience. I am interested in the early human development both in typical and atypical developmental trajectories (e.g., preterm birth, sensory deficit, neurodevelopmental disorders). Productivity. I authored 25 papers published in international scientific journals (h-index = 6, Scopus ).
