Grüezi! I am Giovanni, a researcher and a storyteller.

Research

Ethical frameworks for AI and public health say what should be guaranteed, and rarely what counts as having guaranteed it. My research works in that gap: how principles become practice in the institutions that communicate, listen and decide on our behalf, and what the people on the receiving end are owed. It moves between experiments on language models and disinformation, studies of patients’ and citizens’ values, and the normative work of turning those findings into criteria that can be checked.

• AI and informationDisinformation, bias in language models, infodemics and social listening.
• Public health ethicsCrisis communication, public preferences and fair decisions in health.
• Patient experiencesWhat people living with illness say, read with qualitative and computational methods.
• Science and publishingOpen access, authorship and how research reaches its readers.
• Bioethics and societyDonation, death, religion and the questions bioethics carries into public life.
