Francesco Armillei

PhD student in Economics at Bocconi University, under the supervision of professor Thomas Le Barbanchon. 

My main fields of research are labour economics and public economics. My work focuses on job search behavior, industrial relations, and social insurance. 

I'm fellow of the think-tank Tortuga and of the Ing. Rodolfo Debenedetti Foundation. I previously was a pre-doctoral research assistant at the London School of Economics.

I am also deeply interested in how economics can contribute to improving public policies.
