2008 - Present, Associate Professor, National University of Political Studies and Public Administration/ Bucharest (https://comunicare.ro/en/index.php?page=centru-cercetare-comunicare)
Starting with 2008 I've been a senior lecturer in media research studies and political communication within the National University of Political Science and Administration (Bucharest) and from 2011 till 2016 I have been joint-managing director of the Centre for Research in Communication affiliated to the same university.
- For the past nine years I have revised the academic curriculum for several academic topics and I have organised and contributed as a speaker/ discussant to numerous international academic conferences and workshops dedicated to media effects, political psychology, crisis communication and governmental affairs.
- Under my supervision the Centre for Research in Communication has been part of several EU-funded international projects dedicated to media research, political campaigns and populism across Europe. Starting with 2018, due to its expansion, the Centre has been subdivided into multiple Labs and I am a researcher affiliated to the Media Studies Research Lab, dedicated predominantly to the study of disinformation and online hate speech.
