Research topics
My research sits at the intersection of law, science, and technology, examining how legal frameworks evolve alongside technological innovation. I am a member of the Italian Society for Science and Technology Studies (STS). With a background in comparative law, I am particularly interested in how different jurisdictions address similar regulatory challenges - and how we can learn from these diverse approaches to shape legal solutions.
I am also actively involved in several research and policy projects at EU and national level. Here are the links with titles for easy reference:
- Platform law – research on comparative platform regulation and governance.
- Parasol – investigating platform responsibility and accountability under the Digital Services Act.
- Retel – reshaping legal education for future lawyers.
- Detokode – research on tokenisation and the law.
- Tutela - turin tech law: a lab for social good – exploring law and technology for social impact.
- R2CA – the right to clean air – research on participation and conflict for air quality in Italian and EU cities (progetto di eccellenza).
