My works mainly deal with evolutionary ecology and social ethology of vertebrates.

 In an evolutionary biology perspective, my researches focus on sexual antagonism and on the ecological basis of mating strategies, dealing with social behavior and habitat constraints affecting reproductive strategies.

Research topics developed mainly focus on sexual strategies, introducing variability of life-history strategies to reveal the influence of habitat on mating system.

I am currently conducting both field and experimental designs to test different models on the adaptive basis of mating system.
