FEDERICA MELUZZI

I am a PhD candidate in Economics at CREST (Institut Polytechnique de Paris), under the supervision of Prof. Pierre Cahuc and Prof. Arne Uhlendorff. I am also a Research Fellow at the French Ministry of Labor (DARES).

In June 2026, I will join LMU Munich as an Assistant Professor in Economics, following a postdoctoral fellowship at the Economics Department at Bocconi University. 

My research lies in labor economics, gender and public economics. 

I study how different actors—peers, firms and public policies—shape the evolution of gender norms. My other interests are on the role of education policies in reducing non-financial barriers to equal opportunity, and on the effects of pay transparency on firm wage premia.

During my PhD, I visited the LSE and the University of California, Berkeley.
