My research interests focus on the developing of statistical models for the analysis of graphs (or networks). During my PhD and Postdoc, I developed different statistical tools for the analysis of population of labelled and unlabelled networks represented as adjacency matrices and eigenvalues sets. I am currently working on how to build a more natural space for graphs based on edgelist representation. All these models appear to be useful in the analysis of public transport systems, brain connectivity networks, cardiac fibrosis graphs, etc.. Some of the projects I am part of are listed below:
I did my postdoc within the ERC Project Geometry and Statistics leaded by Xavier Pennec, aiming at developing Statistical Tools for the analysis of non Euclidean Data - from Manifold to Quotient Spaces:
GStatsI took part of Safari Njema Project. We studied the Chapas lines in Maputo, Mozambique. I visited Maputo multiple times to work together with the local authorities to find sustainable solutions for the integration of the chapas system in Maputo.
Safari NjemaI am currenty in charge of the development of modules for the analysis of data in metric spaces and stratified spaces in geomstats.

CVBorn in Genoa in 1991. Moved around in Europe since 2010. In 2020, I finished my PhD in Statistics and Urban Studies under the supervision of Prof. Simone Vantini (Politecnico di Milano) and Prof. Aasa Feragen (DTU Compute). I am currently based between London and Antibes. Main interests are Geometry and Statistics, improving Public Transport System in different context (from Scandinavia to Mozambique), swimming in the ocean at winter. I am a watercolor painter and a passionate vegetarian cook.
I am currently working on a watercolor exibithion about psycological diseases. Further details coming up...
I am currently working on a vegeratian italian cookbook. Further details coming up...
I am the country advisor of the Pad Project Italia.
