Lecturer (Assistant Professor)
@ Newcastle University Business School
I'm Diego, a lecturer (assistant professor) at Newcastle University Business School, UK, specializing in the economics of crime. My research spans street crime, white-collar crime, and the effects of drug regulation on criminal and police behavior. Utilizing large datasets from the US, UK, and Italy, I investigate the determinants of criminal and police actions across diverse settings. My work also delves into the role of tax havens in facilitating malpractice in the oil sector and undermining financial sanctions.
I teach statistics and econometrics. I guide students at the bachelor, master, and PhD levels, offering mentorship and support as they navigate the complexities of these subjects. I particularly enjoy helping students overcome their apprehensions about maths and coding, fostering confidence and proficiency in these essential tools.
