She serves as member of the National Behavioral Unit (an advisory committee to the Presidency of the Council of Ministries), for the application of behavioral insights to the analysis of central administrative action (2017-present) and consulted the national independent regulator for energy Arera (2016). Her most recent research work relates to digitalization and the use of algorithms in private and public decision-making. In these fields, she has a number of articles, op-eds and a book to her credit, and has been audited as national expert before the Berec (European body pooling together national regulators for electronic communications), the European Commission, the Italian Authority for Minors and adolescents and the Italian Regulator for Financial Markets.
Her research project at the Federmann Cyber Security Rsearch Center suggests to integrate algorithms in experimentation about disclosures — to be conducted cooperatively by governmental agencies and commercial firms — before laying down new regulation.
