Welcome to my personal website!

• I am an applied environmental economist with main focus on the economics of adaptation to climate change.

• I am an Assistant Professor (non-tenure track) at the ifo Institute and LMU Munich, and a member of the CESifo Resarch network.

• I completed my PhD in Economics at the University of Bologna in July 2024.

• My current research relates to the impacts of climate change and households’ adaptation, particularly in developing economies. Applying micro-econometric methods, I study:
  • the social costs of warmer temperatures, especially for health
  • the adaptation response of households
  • the uneven distribution of both exposure to extreme heat and access to adaptation
  • the (unintended) effects of public policies on the relationship between socio-economic outcomes and temperature exposure

• I am also a research affiliate at the Euro-Mediterranean Centre on Climate Change, Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, and the RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment.

• You can find my full CV here.
