Riccardo Di Francesco

Ph.D. candidate at University of Rome Tor Vergata

Hello there! I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics and Finance at the University of Rome Tor Vergata. My specialization lies in econometrics with a strong inclination towards adapting machine learning techniques for causal inference. I also focus on applied microeconomics, particularly mental health issues and LGBTQ+ economics. When I am not busy crunching numbers and analyzing data, you might find me hiking, training in the boxing ring, or strumming away on my bass guitar. As I look ahead, my aspiration is to secure a Post-Doc position upon the completion of my Ph.D. I believe this journey will enable me to further explore and contribute to the evolving landscape of economic research.
