Ha ottenuto l'idoneità come Professore di prima fascia nel 2002.

Ha insegnato precedentemente presso l'Università di Pavia e l'Università dell'Insubria. E' stata eletta del Council dell''Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS), per il 2011-2014, ed e' stata membro del Board of Directors dell'International Society for Bayesian Analysis (ISBA), 2002-2004 e 2008-2010. Ha svolto periodi di ricerca presso diverse università e istituti di ricerca, fra cui Stanford University, University of Cornell, University of Washington, Institute for Mathematics and its Applications - University of Minnesota, Indian Statistical Institute, Russian Academy of Science.

Ha fatto parte del comitato scientifico e organizzatore di numerosi convegni scientifici internazionali, fra cui la serie di workshop su "Bayesian nonparametrics" e "Bayesian Inference for Stochastic Processes" (BISP).

 

Ha ottenuto i riconoscimenti "Indennità di eccellenza nella ricerca" dell'Università Bocconi per il 2002 e 2003, e per il 2008, e  "Research profile" 2010-2012.
