I’m a sociology PhD student at the Department of Political and Social Science at the European University Institute (EUI) in Florence. I’m also a research fellow at the University of Bologna working on the GENPOP project.

My research aims to understand the intergenerational transmission of social inequalities in educational and health outcomes using also molecular genetics data. In my PhD project, I focused on gene-environment interaction (GxE) to understand how genetic and environmental factors interact in shaping social inequality in education and health.

My works have been published in Social Science Research, European Sociological Review, and Research in Social Stratification and Mobility.

Research fields:

• Social stratification
• Educational and health inequalities
• Sociogenomics
• Early childhood
