I am a Research Director at the Institute of Cognitive Sciences and Technologies of the National Research Council of Italy in Rome, where I am the coordinator of the Laboratory of Agent Based Social Simulation (LABSS). I am Adjunct Professor at the Institute for Analytical Sociology at Linkoping University and Senior Researcher at the Institute for Future Studies, Stockholm, Sweden.
My research focuses on the emergence, enforcement, change and decay of social norms and their effects on cooperation and conflicts. My research topics include cooperation, altruism, honesty, as well as bad norms and misinformation. I use theoretical and computational models, combined with on-line and laboratory experiments, surveys and big data to answer these and related questions about social norms.

Special Issue
The Theme Issue “Social norm change: drivers and consequences.” (edited by Andrighetto, G., Gavrilets, S., Gelfand, M., Mace, R., Vriens, E.) on Phil. Trans. R. Soc. B contains 14 contributions that present state-of-the-art approaches to understand what generates social norm change and how this impacts our societies. Contributions give insight into (i) the identification of norms, norm change and their effect on behaviour; (ii) drivers and consequences of spontaneous norm change; and (iii) how norm change can be engineered to promote desired behavioural change.
