He holds a Ph.D. in Economics from Aix-Marseille University (AMSE) and has post-doctoral experience as a researcher at the University of Rennes 1 (CREM) and the University of Lyon 2 (GATE). João joined the University of Southampton in 2019, where he focuses on Behavioural Experimental Economics, Public Economics, and Political Economy.

His current research explores people's preferences regarding tax policy, welfare measurement, and the behavioural effects surrounding democratic decision-making processes.

He is also open to accepting PhD students to further explore these significant areas within economics.
