I am an FWO Junjor postdoctoral fellow at Ghent University, with a project on Deontic Logics in a Pluralistic Framework. Before that, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Central European University, within the MODREQUAM project. I obtained my PhD at Scuola Normale Superiore, under the joint supervision of Mario Piazza (SNS) and Igor Sedlár (Czech Academy of Sciences).

My research concerns the philosophical applications of (non-classical) logic. More in details, here are some topics I've been thinking about recently, in order of decreasing frequency:

• Non-classical, especially relevant, logics;

• Formalisation of epistemic and deontic modals;

• Hyperintensional logics;

• Philosophical aspects of logical connectives;

• Topic sensitive logics;

• Dynamic logics;

• Logical Pluralism.
