I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Political and Social Sciences (DSPS), University of Florence. I teach an undergraduate-level course in Comparative Politics as well as a Master’s-level course in European politics.
My research focuses on comparative political institutions, with particular attention to parliamentary agenda-setting, coalition governance, crisis politics, and the interplay between national and European decision-making.
I am a co-founder and co-PI of both the Italian Policy Agendas Project and the Portuguese Policy Agendas Project. I also coordinate the Jean Monnet Module REPLAN-EU (Implementing Resilience and Recovery Plans in Italy and Beyond) and lead the Florence-based research unit of the REPLAN-EU PRIN project.
In addition, I serve on the MEDEM - Monitoring Electoral Democracy Board of Directors and act as Scientific Coordinator of the MEDEM Service Center for Country and Institutional Data at the DSPS.
