Nowcasting COVID-19 incidence indicators during the Italian first outbreak (Publications)
A novel parametric regression model is proposed to fit incidence data typically collected during epidemics. The proposal is motivated by real-time monitoring and short-term forecasting of the main epi
Perceived built environment, health-related quality of life and health care utilization (Publications)
Previous research has shown that the built environment plays a crucial role for health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and health care utilization. But, there is limited evidence on the independence o
