Research Interests

My research lies at the intersection of applied microeconometrics and empirical policy evaluation, with a focus on innovation, international trade, and health.

Using quasi-experimental designs for  ex-post evaluations, I analyze the causal effects of policy interventions on their intended objectives and assess their broader socio-economic impacts. My work aims to provide robust and credible evidence by evaluating not only the effectiveness, impact, and cost of policies, but also by understanding their social implications within the affected populations.
