My current research area is the development of a Peirce-inspired model of the relation between semantics and perception. The research involves philosophical investigation of cognitive sciences data and semiotic analyses of perceptual and semantic phenomena.
I have a BA in Communication and an MA in Semiotics both achieved at
Bologna University. I specialised in Cognitive Semiotics, working on
the borders between semiotics, philosophy of mind, cognitive sciences and ethnography at the Center for Semiotics of Aarhus University.I consulted for and participated to didactic, communication and
research project for the Universities of Bologna (Forlì and Buenos
Aires detachments), Trento and Aarhus. I also worked as a free-lance
consultant both with Studio Semioticamente and independently.I collaborate with Cognitive Semiotics, international peer-reviewed journal on semiotics and cognitive sciences.
