I am an Italian computer scientist with a curious and
driven mindset. My passion for the digital world led me to study computer
science and pursue research in brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), aiming to restore
motor function in people with disabilities through neural-controlled technologies.
Currently, I am completing a PhD in Biorobotics at the
Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies. My research combines advanced neural
signal processing with state-of-the-art Deep Learning techniques—such as
transformer-based architectures—to develop BCIs that help individuals with
motor impairments, including spinal cord injuries, regain functional independence
through neuroprosthetic control.

Important awards and achievements that I have received throughout my career.
Best paper presented by a young researcher
I received this award at the international conference IEEE MetroXRAINE 2023. This award recognizes the most outstanding paper presented by a Young Researcher at IEEE MetroXRAINE 2023. Paper title: 'EEG based self-paced decoding of upper-limb movement intention in healthy subjects'.
Recipient of the prestigious 2024 Zegna Scholarship, which funded my 8-month research stay at the University of Michigan (USA), supporting advanced work on Brain and Body Machine Interfaces (BMI) using implantable signal sources for neuroprosthetic applications.
Here are some of my latest peer-reviewed publications in scientific journals where I contributed significantly as the first or co-first author.
2025, IEEE Transactions on Medical Robotics and Bionics
2024, IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
2024, Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation
