I am Associate Professor at the Università degli Studi di Milano, Department of Economics, Management and Quantitative Methods. 

I earned my Ph.D. in economics in 2015 from DEFAP (Graduate School in Public Economics), Catholic University of Milan. I hold a bachelor's degree in Management of Public Administration and International Institutions from Bocconi University and a master's degree in Economics of International Development from Sciences Po (Institut d’études politiques), Paris. 

My primary research interests include innovation, the global and cross-national politics of Intellectual Property Rights, public health and public finance. 

Previusly, I served as a tenure-track Assistant Professor at the Università degli Studi di Milano, and as an Assistant Professor at the Catholic University of Milan. I have also held research fellowships at the University of Verona—where I worked on several projects related to public health—and at FBK-IRVAPP (Research Institute for the Evaluation of Public Policies) in Trento, where I was responsible for analyzing industrial policies. Earlier in my career, I was a research assistant at the IMT School for Advanced Studies Lucca, focusing on innovation and firms’ localization choices, and at Bocconi University. 

Currently, I teach the course of Health Economics and Evaluation of health policies and programs (Università degli Studi di Milano). In the past, I have also lectured on Microeconomics (Università degli Studi di Milano, Catholic University), Public Finance (University of Verona) and Comparative insurance systems (Università degli Studi di Milano).
