My research interests focus on social, interpersonal, and inter-group processes and the role these factors play in boosting or undermining health and well-being outcomes. I study these issues in hard-to-reach populations (i.e., patients, refugees, migrants) and professional groups (i.e., healthcare workers and students of medical sciences).
