Since 2015 I am member of the Italian National Committee for establishing the guidelines for the clinical management of children with Specific Language Impairments and of the European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST Action) – EU Framework Programme Horizon 2020: IS1406 (\"Enhancing children\'s oral language skills across Europe and beyond - a collaboration focusing on interventions for children with difficulties learning their first language\"). My research interests span from the study of the neural correlates of language, the neuropsychology of language in both adults and children (linguistic assessment, characterization of linguistic symptoms, linguistic rehabilitation), the development of new procedures of discourse analysis and the study of the phylogenetic evolution of language. My teaching activity is focused on the Psychology of Language, Cognitive Psychology, Psycholinguistics applied to Psychiatry, Neurolinguistics, Developmental Psychology (University of Udine), Psycholinguistics (Universities of Trieste and Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Rome).

In 2013 I was invited as visiting professor at East Carolina University (Greenville, NC, USA). I authored several books, book chapters and articles in peer-reviewed journals.
