From January 2018, I am academic (teaching) assistant at the School of Transnational Governance at European University Institute. From September 2017 to December 2017, I was visiting Lecturer at the Institute of European, Russian and Eurasian Studies at Carleton University (Ottawa, Canada). Previously, I was Max Weber Fellow (2015-2017) at the Department of Political and Social Sciences, European University Institute. I was affiliated at the thematic research group "Europe in the World: Foreign Relations, International Security, World Politics". My research focuses on the employment of diverse computational social science approaches (automated content analysis techniques and sentiment analysis) to examine the role of the EU as a global and regional security actor.
Prior to joining the EUI, I was a post-doctoral research fellow at the Athens University of Economics and Business (2013-2015) in the research project "The EU Performance at the United Nations General Assembly". My broader research agenda focuses on European integration, international relations, foreign policy analysis and political methodology.
