LUÍS MELONI
Associate Professor
University of São Paulo
Department of Economics
I am an Associate Professor of Economics at the University of São Paulo. My research combines causal inference methods with large-scale administrative data and machine learning techniques to study how public policies and regulatory frameworks affect economic outcomes.
My current projects span education, energy regulation, labor markets, and environmental enforcement. A complementary strand examines how information and media shape political accountability and governance outcomes. Previously, I was a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow at Bocconi University and a visiting scholar at Universitat Pompeu Fabra.
You can find my CV , and explore my ongoing research and working papers on the research page.
