Luigi Boggian

I am a PhD candidate in Economics at the Institute of Health and Society (IRSS) and at the Institute of Economic and Social Research (IRES) of Catholic University of Louvain (Belgium). 

Since November 2023, I hold a Research Scholarship funded by the Horizon Europe project FLASH at the Department of Economics of the University of Verona (Italy).  Previously, I was a FNRS-FRESH Fellow until October 2023. 

Under the supervision of my PhD supervisor Prof. Sandy Tubeuf (UCLouvain), I have worked on healthcare inequalities between immigrants and natives in Europe, with a specific focus on forgone care, cardiovascular risk factors and mental health. In 2022 I did a four-months research visit at the Centre de Recerca en Economia i Salut (CRES)  at Pompeu Fabra University under the supervision of Prof. Catia Nicodemo (University of Oxford, Univeristy of Verona).

My main interests are health and healthcare inequalities, migration and gender.
