Coccia Mario

The goal of my scientific research is to make statistical analyses, models, carry out experiments, and conduct observational studies that illuminate the evolutionary properties of technology in society, processes of coevolution between technologies, and the measurement of technological advances over time and space. I have been a research fellow at the Max Planck Institute of Economics and visiting professor at the Polytechnics of Torino and University of Piemonte Orientale (Italy). I have conducted research work at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Yale University, United Nations University-Maastricht Economic and Social Research Institute on Innovation and Technology (UNU-MERIT), RAND Corporation (Washington D.C.), University of Maryland (College Park), Bureau d’Économie Théorique et Appliquée (Strasbourg), Munk School of Global Affairs (University of Toronto), and Institute for Science and Technology Studies (University of Bielefeld). I lead the CocciaLAB at  the CNR to investigate, with interdisciplinary scientific researches, the determinants of socioeconomic phenomena. I am member of the editorial board of manifold journals, such as Environmental Research, GE; Sensors, AIMS Public Health, Discover Sustainability, Economics and Business Letters, The Economics of Science, Current Economics: Applied Economics, International Journal of Happiness and Development, HighTech and Innovation Journal. I have published many papers on economics of science and innovation, political economy of science and technology, ecology of COVID-19, environmental and sustainability sciences.
