Dr. Zoey Verdun

PhD in Economics

Sessional Instructor, University of Victoria

Postdoctoral Research Fellow, University of British Columbia

Welcome to my webpage. I have just concluded my postdoc (Research Associate) at the Centre for Health Economics & Policy Innovation (CHEPI) at Imperial College London.

In September, I started teaching Econ 246 at the University of Victoria (UVic). In October, I started my postdoc in the Stringhini Lab within the School of Population and Public Health at the University of British Columbia (UBC).

I defended my PhD thesis in Economics at the European University Institute in Florence, Italy (May 2023). My advisors were Michèle Belot and Arthur Schram.

My main research interest is in Health Economics. More specifically I focus on healthy behaviours and habits, often focusing on diet, and the (lack of) changes thereof.

I am also interested in the prevention of health conditions (heart attack, obesity, diabetes, etc) through the adoption of healthy lifestyles, including plant-based diets.
