Research
Research interests
My research mainly focuses on experimental economics to study complex human behavior and its implications for public policy. I have two main research interests: the first is understanding the role of social norms, inequality, and cooperation within group dynamics and public goods games. My second research area explores the effectiveness and social acceptability of environmental policies, particularly those designed to influence energy consumption. Additionally, I maintain an active research agenda in Political Economy and Industrial Organisation, combining a theoretical approach based on Game Theory with computational methods.
