I am a cognitive neuroscientist. I lead the Neuroscience of Perception and Action Laboratory (NPA Lab), based in Rome, Italy. 

My Lab generally investigates fundamental questions about how humans perceive the world and act in it. Currently, we are investigating two widespread human capacities: social interaction and musicality (the biological predispositions that make humans universally apt to musical behaviour). More info about our current research can be found here.
