Thrilled to be presenting my research on the strategic representation of women in Italian radical right parties tomorrow at #EPSA2025! I'm part of a fantastic panel on gender, political representation, and far-right support.
Looking forward to connecting and exchanging ideas!

Seven lessons I didn’t learn from election day I spent most of my election day — 3pm to 11pm Pacific time — trading on Manifold Markets. That went about as well as it could have gone. I doubled the money I was trading with, jumping …
