🎓 After 4 years of work and my first RCT, we published a study on HPV vaccine hesitancy in adolescents.

🧵 HPVoice: 3-arm RCT on Instagram, 22 high school classes in Tuscany, 526 students. We tested whether "bias-aware" content (Present Bias, Gain-Loss Framing) beat plain info.

🔍 Small overall effect — but Information Avoidance moderated everything: it helped the open-minded, backfired for avoiders.

This is 2026, and everyone should be working to contain the spread of disease for a resilient humanity. But this is 2026, and it freaks me out to hear people forgoing the measles vaccine. I want everyone on Earth to know that this Old World disease is nothing to toy with. It will make life miserable, and even if one survives the onset, it could very well end in lethal complications. May this piece of advice lead to less tragedy.

Vaccine hesitancy is complex, but, says author and academic Timothy Caulfield, study after study confirms that in the U.S. and Canada, political affiliation is one of the single strongest predictors of vaccination status. He writes for the Toronto Star about what can make a difference: Pre-bunking, debunking, teaching critical thinking and using creative science communication. "Perhaps what’s most important, though, is that we hold governments to account — with our voices and with our votes," he concludes.

Yesterday, after four years, I earned my PhD in Health Science, Technology, and Management at Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna.

🎓 My dissertation explores topics such as adolescent vaccine hesitancy, the behavioral impact of clinical guidelines, the drivers of innovation in healthcare systems, and the digital transformation of health. All examined through the lens of applied behavioral science.

I am deeply grateful to my supervisor, Prof. Nicola Belle', for these four incredible, challenging, and inspiring years.
To Dario Menicagli, thank you for welcoming me into the HPV project and for your trust and support. And to the incredible HPVoice team: Folco Panizza, Virginia Casigliani, Elisa Betti, Prof. Lara Tavoschi, thank you for your energy, kindness, and for making research a shared adventure.

I also wish to thank the reviewers and the PhD Defense Committee for their constructive feedback, with particular thanks to Prof. Marco Tagliabue and Prof. Simone Guercini.

Here’s to new beginnings, new challenges, and the hope that our research can make even a small difference.

Over the next century, #vaccines virtually wiped out long-feared scourges like #polio & #measles & drastically reduced the toll of many others. Today, however, some preventable, #ContagiousDiseases are making a comeback as #VaccineHesitancy pushes #immunization rates down.

Where in Europe are cases of measles on the rise?

A handful of countries have reported measles outbreaks this year, with Romania reporting by far the highest number of cases.

This is the picture for the rest of the European Union.

Vaccines are one of the greatest scientific success stories of our time. They have saved more than 154 million lives in the last 50 years — more than 1 life every 10 seconds.

Recent moves to strip funding from vaccine-related research are shortsighted and self-harming. As is the use of precious resources to revisit debunked claims of links to autism.

The best vaccine isn’t useful if it is not distributed, or not socially accepted. Vaccine equity and hesitancy remain great challenges. Globalizing antivaccine activism could become our greatest hurdle.

It is not time to defund, but rather invest in vaccines.

Vaccines are one of the greatest scientific success stories of our time. Vaccination has saved more than 154 million lives in the last 50 years — more than six lives every minute of every year.

Our technical ability to develop vaccines has outpaced our social, political, and financial systems for ensuring their use. Recent moves to strip funding from vaccine-related research are shortsighted and self-harming. As is the use of precious resources to revisit debunked claims of links to autism.

The best vaccine isn’t useful if it is not distributed, or not socially accepted. Vaccine equity and hesitancy remain great challenges. Globalizing antivaccine activism could become our greatest hurdle.

We should not allow misinformation, disinformation, ignorance and defunding to hinder vaccine development, deployment and use.

It is not time to defund, but rather invest in vaccines.

Professor Lawler said he is concerned of low #immunisation rates leading to widespread harm and death, particularly in the wake of a recent surge in cases of #whoopingcough, #measles, respiratory syncytial virus (#RSV) and #meningococcal disease.

‘If we continue to see rising #vaccinehesitancy and dropping vaccination rates, we will see real harm coming to Australian children and communities,’ he said.

‘And when I say real harm, I’m including deaths in that.’ (2/3)
