Interests
MY BACKGROUND
My research interests lie in general Philosophy of Science and Social Epistemology, with a focus in formal and social analyses of decision-making processes, human rationality, and public policies, especially for what pertains medical and pharmaceutical problems.
I'm currently a Ph.D. student in Cognitive, Computational and Social Neuroscience at IMT School for Advanced Studies, Lucca.
