Post-doc researcher MaiNLP, LMU Munich
My updated CV is here

I am a post-doc researcher at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, under the supervision of Prof. Barbara Plank.

Previously, I was a post-doc researcher at the University of Turin (PI: Prof. Valerio Basile), where I worked on perspective-aware NLP, disagreement and human label variation (Amazon-Science granted project).

I was awarded a Ph.D. cum laude from the University of Padua with a grant from Fondazione Bruno Kessler (Advisor: Alberto Lavelli); my main focus was on summarization and simplification, mostly in the patent domain. During my Ph.D., I visited Universitat Pompeu Fabra under the supervision of Prof. Horacio Saggion and interned remotely with Spotify Research and Huawei Research.

I was awarded the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Seal of Excellence and an ACL outstanding paper.

My research interests lie in NLP, focusing on Natural Language Generation.
