My doctoral research was conducted as part of a funded project analysing the scholia on Apollonius Rhodius’ Argonautica. My thesis shed light on the corpus' characteristic and unique features, contextualising it in the ancient Greek scholarly tradition. I intend to publish this critical study as a monograph.

My main research interests are ancient Greek scholarship and the intellectual culture of the Hellenistic period. I work on the commentary tradition and scholia, the annotations and commentary notes which survive in the margins of manuscripts.
