Legenda
After completing a Master’s degree in General and Experimental Psychology at the University of Padua, I earned a PhD in Developmental Neuroscience from the University of Pisa and a Specialization in Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy from the University of Siena.
I worked as a Senior Psychologist at the IRCCS Fondazione Stella Maris, in the Clinical Department of Developmental Neuroscience, where I was involved in neuropsychological assessment and rehabilitation within the Neurology Unit.
My research focuses on neuropsychological profiles in neurodevelopmental disorders and on the use of tele-rehabilitation for basic cognitive functions and learning processes.
I am the author of numerous publications in internationally indexed journals and have been an invited speaker at many national and international courses and conferences in the field of developmental neuropsychology.
