Eugenia is a postdoctoral researcher at the Centre for Religious Studies of Fondazione Bruno Kessler (Trento, Italy). She has recently obtained a PhD in Philosophy of Psychology at the University of Birmingham (UK), where she worked on the adaptiveness of delusional beliefs. She also briefly worked in the Department of Health and Social Care of the UK Government. In the REBE project, she will explore the (dis)similarities between delusions and other forms of resilient beliefs - religious and conspiratorial in particular.
