Introducing myself:
I am a professor of economics and the director of the Department of Economics, Social Studies and Applied Mathematics and Statistics (ESOMAS department) of the University of Torino, recognised as a "Department of Excellence" by the Ministry of University and Research. Currently, I am also the director of the Master in Welfare: Theory and Data Analysis (in agreement with INPS and Collegio Carlo Alberto) and of the Master in Active Labor market Policies (in agreement with Agenzia Piemonte Lavoro and SAA - School of Management). I am a research fellow at the Collegio Carlo Alberto, the IZA Institute for Labor Economics, the Research Institute for Sustainable Growth - IRCrES-CNR and CIRET - Centro Studi Interuniversitario "Ezio Tarantelli". I have previously served as a senior researcher at the Institute for Social and Economic Research, the LABORatorio Revelli, as an internal consultant at the World Bank and external consultant for the International Labour Organization (ILO), the Italian Commission on Poverty and Social Exclusion, INAPP (ex-ISFOL) and NERA (London). I received a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Essex. My main areas of research are in labor economics, income distribution and poverty and applied microeconometrics. My research works have appeared in leading economics journals, including the Economic Journal, the Review of Economic Studies and the American Economic Journal: Applied Economics. I teach labor economics, empirical methods for economics and social sciences, and policy evaluation at both the PhD / graduate and undergraduate level.
