The University of Modena and Reggio Emilia participate in the JERUS-IT-ARTS project as DHMoRe, the Interdepartmental Centre for the Digital Humanities.
UNIMORE has a longstanding tradition (the first Studium was established in 1175) and is very well evaluated among the Italian universities for teaching and research. UNIMORE comprises 13 Departments, offering a wide range of degree programmes at the undergraduate level, right up to doctoral studies, from the humanities and social sciences to engineering and technology, and from physical and natural sciences to medicine and life sciences.
The DHMoRe promotes and coordinates interdisciplinary studies and research in the field of Digital Humanities, acting as a leading partner for public and private research entities to implement projects at national and international levels, encourages the start-up of cultural and creative enterprises and has an open and constant dialogue with the UNIMORE PhD programs.
Co-coordinator of JERUS-IT-ARTS, I am Associate Professor of Contemporary History. My research focuses on the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and mobility in the Mediterranean, the history of disabilities and archives.
I have several years of experience as a policy and project officer at EU institutions (EC and
ERC) and as project manager for UNIMORE and I am also an independent external expert in charge of ethics for the European institutions and Horizon Europe projects.
I'm a linguist, specialised in corpora and discourse analysis. My main interests revolve around the impact that digital technologies have on language. I collaborate on interdisciplinary projects, and on the development of digital archives for the hybridisation of research approaches.
Cellist, academic supervisor for the Magnificat Institute in Jerusalem. As a post-doc researcher at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, I’m involved in JERUS-IT-ART as responsible for the exchanges with the music archive of the Custody of the Holy Land. I’m an author of musical projects in Jerusalem and a writer.
As an ethnomusicologist, I study how sound and musical sources are preserved, mediated and reused in the Mediterranean region, particularly analyzing the impact of digital technologies on their interpretation and transmission.
