Postdoctoral Fellow

Politecnico di Milano

I am a philosopher by training and obtained my PhD in 2018 from the Scuola Normale Superiore with a thesis on infinite idealizations in physics. I have a wide range of interests, from philosophy of science and its history, to philosophy of mathematics and logic, philosophy of technology, and digital humanities. My recent research focuses on the philosophical and ethical challenges of bias detection and mitigation in data-driven language models. I worked on the PRIN project ‘Analogical Reasoning in Contemporary Physical Theories’ at the Politecnico di Milano in 2024-25. Within this project, I focused on the use of analogies in high-school physics teaching and on analogical proportions for bias detection in word embeddings. I currently continue my research on analogies in the context of sports education.

Interests
  • Analogies in science, science education, sports education, and AI;
  • Models and idealization;
  • Mathematical infinity and its applications in physics;
  • Scientific and mathematical explanation;
  • Computational methods for philosophy;
  • Bias in computational language models.
