Who am I?
I am currently a Professor at the Department of Business Economics, Health and Social Care of the University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI), an Associate Researcher at the Department of Sociology and Nuffield College at the University of Oxford, and a Research Fellow at the Swiss School of Public Health, the Milan Center for Neurosciences (NEUROMI), and the Swiss Centre of Expertise in Life Course Research (LIVES).
I like to define myself as a social scientist with training in behavioral and applied economics, and a research agenda at the intersection of gender inequalities, demography, and development.
My work is guided by a core interest in how care, cooperation, and technology adoption shape well-being, social cohesion, and sustainable development in the context of the digital revolution. I seek to understand how individual-level socioeconomic and demographic behaviors translate into broader social and health outcomes—across time, space, and systems.
