I am Assistant Professor (Ricercatore) at the Department of Economics and Law of the Sapienza University of Rome. I currently teach Public Economics at the Faculty of Economics in Latina. I previously held posts at the Departments of Economics of the Universities of Trento, Siena, Padua, and Cassino.

I am founding editor of the Social Capital Gateway, website providing resources for social sciences, and chief editor of the Journal of Entrepreneurial and Organizational Diversity (JEOD). My main fields of research are Health economics, Labour economics, and Social economics. I am currently a top 5% author in the RePEc worldwide ranking of economists in terms of 4 of the 33 RePEc criteria.

I also write two blogs on topics of economics and politics for the Italian magazine MicroMega (Espresso-La Repubblica Group) and for the Italian newspaper Il Fatto Quotidiano. Besides my research activity, I have a passion for photography and I collaborate with Getty Images as a freelance photographer. Here is my photostream on Flickr.com.
