Born and bred in Rome, I studied Neuroscience in London and Paris where I pursued with a PhD supervised by Thérèse Jay and Sidney Wiener and then with a postdoc with Michaël Zugaro.
I am ultimately interested in the dynamics allowing the exchange of information between brain areas, namely how the information encoded in one neural structure is able to modulate the encoding in another area (and the other way around), and how these interactions orchestrate perception, learning, and behavior. To do so, my primary experimental approach is to perform high-density recordings of individual neurons simultaneously in multiple brain sites of freely behaving rats and then use data mining and analysis to study neural population dynamics.
