Bio

(Genova, 1988: M.Sc.Eng., Ph.D.) is an architect and external collaborator at the Department of Architecture and Design (dAD) of the Polytechnic School of the University of Genoa (Italy).
Her research activity focuses on the hybrid connection between architecture and cognitive neuroscience, analysing topics such as atmospheric dynamics, the emotional nature of the architectural experience, Embodiment Theory, the empathic phenomenon, and experimentation in virtual reality.
Her Ph.D. project (‘Neurocosmos: The Emotional and Cognitive Correlates of Architectural Atmospheres’) was presented during the 2018 ANFA Conference at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies (La Jolla, CA) in September 2018, winning the top prize in the Poster Competition.
