Research Profile
I received my Ph.D. in Design from the Design Department of Politecnico di Milano where I was a member of the DensityDesign Lab. My work and academic interests are positioned at the intersection between information design and computer science. In my PhD thesis 鈥淓mbalming and Dissecting AI. Visual Explanations for the General Public鈥� I describe a mixed methodology for approaching the Explainable Artificial Intelligence issue from a communication design perspective.
