Her interests encompass a wide range of topics, from medieval archaeology, which includes settlements, churches, and burials, to the archaeology of historical buildings and the study of historical urban and rural landscapes. He has spearheaded a team of young researchers pioneering new methodologies such as stable isotope analysis, OSL dating of mortars, archaeometric and gas chromatographic analyses of ceramics, and GIS systems for recording and analyzing urban data.
Recently, she embarked on a novel research direction in collaboration with colleagues from the Digital Learning Office. This research delves into the potential of innovative educational methods to enhance and invigorate teaching activities. Stemming from this, he has released three Medieval Archaeology courses on the Future Learn platform.
She places significant emphasis on disseminating research findings to local communities and engaging in participatory archaeology. His initiatives in this regard include organizing refresher courses for middle and high school teachers, lecture series for the general public, and summer schools focused on collaborative research. Additionally, he has introduced three mobile applications: "Medioevo Appadova," "Appaseggio sui Colli," and "Rab: A Walk in the Past."
Currently, she is deeply involved in two major funded bioarchaeology projects. The first, in collaboration with the Universities of Vienna and Roma-La Sapienza, seeks to understand the genetic makeup of early medieval populations in northern Italy, with a particular focus on the non-privileged classes. The second, undertaken with the University of Pisa, investigates the impact of the 6th-century climate change on the late ancient and early medieval population in Italy.

I hope this version of the text captures the essence and provides a more streamlined narration.

Theses are proposed in relation to:
- Multidisciplinary analyses of late-ancient and medieval cemeteries (topography, tomb structures, grave goods, and bioarchaeological analyses)
- Archaeology of historical landscapes (rural and urban)
- Enhancement of archaeological heritage from Participatory Archaeology to Wikipedia
- Analysis of medieval archaeological materials

At the moment, we are working on the sites of Castelseprio, the Rocca di Monselice, the island of Arbe in Croatia, and the historical landscapes of Monte Baldo.
