About my research

My research topics are related to labor market, productive structure and economic development. Particularly, my doctoral project deals with the impact of new technologies on labor markets. The aim is to explore the relationship between the transformations in the employment contracts (particularly, the changes in ‘Standard Employment Relationship’) and technological change.
