L'attività scientifica è volta principalmente allo studio di:

 

ETOLOGIA, PSICOBIOLOGIA, BENESSERE ANIMALE 

• Educazione al benessere animale
• Scienze cognitive e benessere di specie domestiche, anche nuove
• Scienze cognitive e benessere specie selvatiche
• Acquariologia
• Lateralizzazione cerebrale
• Selezione di cani da AAA/AAT (Ethotest 2002©: attività e terapie assistite con cani provenienti da canili)
• UniversItaly Wolf Tour: progetto culturale itinerante, nato da due fattori concomitanti che in questo specifico periodo storico avevano l'urgenza e la necessità di essere conosciuti dal grande pubblico: i) far conoscere scientificamente il lupo appenninico (Canis lupus italicus), la sua ecologia, etologia, espansione e rinascita dopo decenni di persecuzioni (ancora in corso) e proposta di una convivenza fattiva; ii) far conoscere il cane da pastore o mastino abruzzese, divenuto finalmente Patrimonio Culturale degli abruzzesi attraverso una legge dedicata. La Regione Abruzzo definisce addirittura il mastino abruzzese come "capolavoro del collettivo e millenario lavoro di selezione genetica delle genti montane abruzzesi, riconoscendone il prezioso lavoro di cane da protezione delle pecore, insostituibile per l'amichevole attività di branco" (L.R. 09/07/2016).

RESEARCH AREAS

Ongoing research topics:

• Education on Animal welfare 
• Cognitive science and welfare of domestic species
• Cognitive science and welfare of wild specie
• Aquariology
• Lateralization
• Selection of AAA/AAT dogs (Ethotest 2002©: activities and assisted therapies with dogs from kennels)
• UniversItaly Wolf Tour: an itinerant cultural project, born from two concomitant factors that in this specific historical period had the urgency and need to be known by the general public: i) to make known the Apennine wolf (Canis lupus italicus) scientifically, its ecology, ethology, expansion, and renaissance after decades of persecutions (still ongoing) and proposal to an effective coexistence; ii) to make known the Sheepdog or Abruzzese Mastiff, which finally became Cultural Heritage of Abruzzo people through a dedicated law. The Abruzzo Region even defines the Abruzzese mastiff as a "masterpiece of the collective and thousands-year-old work of a genetic selection by the mountain people of Abruzzo, recognizing its valuable work as a sheep protection dog, irreplaceable for the friendly herd activity (L.R. 09/07/ 2016).
