Juan Carlos Caro

I work as Asisstant Professor at the Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Concepcion, Chile. Previously, I conducted my PhD in Health Economics at University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and Post-doctoral work at the Department of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, University of Luxembourg.


Currently, I am dedicated to study social vulnerability, parental behavior, malnutrition, and early human capital accumulation. In particular, I focus on promising tailored interventions that promote adequate health equity and inclusion among families and communities. This work involves close collaboration with ongoing programs targeting children, families and schools. You can find a copy of my updated CV here.


I also spend quite some time outdoors, feel free to browse some photos of the places I have visited for inspiration.
