This is one of the many pictures showing the #wildfires affecting #Sicily right now, and it has been taken very close to my apartment. There are no words to describe how we all feel. The #ClimateCrisis is scaring enough, we don't need criminals on the top of it.

now at @UofG_MOSAIC talk: @ozyurek_a about the necessity of revising current models of language still based on speech only. Even if a lot has been done in the last decades we are still far from a view actually taking multimodality into account. More work to do!

One month ago I arrived at the @Multimodallang and I never imagined that so much work would be done by now (even the sign at the Door has changed!). Working again with @ozyurek_a & @anitaslonimska has been super stimulating and fun. Thank you all for having me!

Mi chiedo come al #tg1 decidano l'ordine delle notizie. Il servizio sui danni del #Medicane in #sicilia orientale alla fine, persino dopo il recap della serata di ieri di Sanremo. Viva l'Italia, quella del continente però.

Teaching is such a penalised part of an academic's life, often considered inferior to research. And yet, nothing rewards you as a classroom full of gratitude at the end of the semester. Well done, first year students! @DisumUnict @unict_it

Very interesting opportunity for Italian participants!
My student is conducting a study on gender identity affirmation and is looking for #Italian participants (18 ) who identify under the umbrella of #nonbinary identities. If you’re interested in sharing your experiences and/or would like to find out more, please DM me! ❤️ #LGBTQIA

How do teenagers express stance during conflictual interactions? This is what I will try to find out with the project "Multimodal stancetaking in pedagogical dialogue", funded by the University of Catania, together with the students Sebastiano Calì & Carmela D'Agosta. Stay tuned!

Doctor cum laude! Amazing defense and incredible group of experts gathered in Nijmegen to discuss communicative efficiency in the visual modality. It was really worthy to be there. Very well done @anitaslonimska!
Officially a doctor! Thank you to the doctoral examination board @signrr, @pernipa, @SabinaFontana6, @ErinWilkinson, @LanguageMIT, and @DingemanseMark for an inspiring discussion and to my fabulous supervisors @ozyurek_a and @olgacapirci for all the support. I'm immensely happy!

So happy that from tomorrow I will be able to call @anitaslonimska Doctor! It seems only yesterday that she was a young master student and now she has became an indipendent and strong researcher and expert in LIS. Happening tomorrow afternoon (also online) at the @Radboud_Uni
