Dr Andrea Piovesan
Faculty of Health
I obtained my bachelor's and master’s degrees in Psychology at the University of Padova (Italy) in 2012 and 2014 respectively. In 2013, I joined the Erasmus program collecting data for my Master dissertation at the University of Liverpool. After my master completion, I moved to the UK obtaining my PhD in Psychology at Liverpool John Moores University in 2019. Since then, I have had multiple teaching and research contracts in the following universities: Liverpool John Moores University (UK), Edge Hill University (UK), and IUAV University of Venice (Italy). Currently, I am a post-doctoral researcher at Edge Hill University investigating whether an online intervention could improve the quality of life of cancer survivors. I also hold a Teaching Fellow position at Liverpool John Moores University delivering lectures and seminars on Research Methods and Biological and Cognitive Psychology.
