I am working at the Laboratory of Applied Ontology, ISTC, CNR in Trento on the project VisCoSO.
I was at the Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (ILLC) working on Computational Social Choice (COMSOC) and at LaBRI (Laboratoire Bordelais de Recherche en Informatique), (INRIA) with SIGNES. In 2006, I defended my PhD in Philosophy at University of Genova (Italy). Here is my personal home page, with some of my papers, teaching etc.

Research interests

My main research interests deal with logical themes in mathematical economics, artificial intelligence and multiagent systems. I have been working on combinatorial auctions, agents negotiation, judgment aggregation and ontology merging.
Moreover, I do research in philosophy, in particular on pragmatism, deliberation, distributive justice and recently social ontology.
