Background
Tommaso Ciarli research is on the impact of technological change on soceities, in higher and lower income countries. He has lead and co-lead several funded projects on: estimating the impact of innovation on employment and inequality (ESRC, JRF, GLA, EC); modelling economic growth and structural change (EC, British Academy, ESRC); studying the relation between inclusive innovation and structural change (IDRC); mapping the relation between science, technology and innovation trajectories, sustainable development and societal challenges (UKRI/GCRF, DFID, ESRC and NSF); modelling sustainable transitions (Rebuilding Macroeconomics); and estimating the impact of violent conflict on economic activity (ESRC, CEPR and DFID).
Research interests
- Technoligical change, work and inequality
- Structural change, inequality and economic development
- Relation between sience trajecotires and society
- Violent conflict.
