About me

I  have a Bachelor's Degree in Cognitive Psychology, University of Trento, and a Master's Double Degree in Cognitive Sciences, from La Statale, Milan, and  Health and Social Psychology, from Maastricht University. I attended a semester in Osnabrück, Germany, and now I live in Pavia for my PhD, excited  to apply neuroscience to the topic of sustainability!

My research

My research focuses on the decision-making processes  through which people decide if and how to improve their own impact on the  environment. The aim is to assess, influence, and eventually nudge  sustainable decision-making attitudes to then, consequently, foster  pro-environmental behaviors. I plan to collect neuro-cognitive data (e.g.,  EEG, fMRI) and use implicit and explicit measures in an experimental setting  to be delivered among adults.
