About: The Scientific Legacy of Francesca Rossi

The aim of this workshop is to present the most recent contributions in the scientific career of Francesca Rossi, whose life was tragically cut short in 2024. Through this event, we hope that her network of co-authors will carry forward the knowledge she created and share it with new generations of econometricians and economists.
