Alessandro Iaria is an assistant professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Bristol.

Alessandro does research on two main topics: (i) the economics of science and innovation, and (ii) methodological aspects of structural econometrics, as typically applied to industrial economics.

On a different line of research, he has been investigating several issues that commonly arise in the estimation of discrete choice models.
