Alberto Antonello - Portfolio

About me

I am currently pursuing a Master of Research at Tinbergen Institute (NL).

I hold a BSc and a MSc in Economics at the University of Padua (IT) and I am a former student of the Galilean School of Higher Education (the Honors College of the University of Padua).

During my studies, I have gained experience at top non-Italian universities, by visiting Purdue University (US) and Ludwig Maximilian University (Germany).

I am currently working as Research Assistant under the supervision of Prof. Rocco and Prof. Bertoni. My current job is to review the most recent advances in difference-in-differences strategies and apply them to study the impact of innovative teaching strategies at my university (“Teaching 4 Learning”), with an extremely granular database specifically built for the project.

I have a special interest in applied microeconomics, including from a behavioral perspective.
