Sergiu Burlacu

Researcher

FBK-IRVAPP

I joined FBK-IRVAPP as Research Fellow in the Fall of 2019. My current primary research interests are social inclusion, micro-firm behaviour and industrial policies, the role of AI in education and other domains (healthcare and risk assessment), and behavioural public policy. I have worked on designing, programming and managing several experiments (field, lab-in-the-field and survey experiments) and surveys in various settings. I am passionate about causal inference, machine learning, programming and open source software.

For a list of my ongoing and past institutional project please see my institutional page.
