Luca Fumarco is an Assistant Professor at the economic department of Masaryk University, Brno, Czechia.

Previously, he has been a postdoc fellow at Tulane University and an economist at the national statistical institute of Luxembourg, STATEC.

His studies have been published in American Journal of Health Economics, Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization, Economics of Education Review, Economics Letters, AEA Papers & Proceedings.

He graduated at Linnaeus University in 2015, while his graduate studies were at the University of Eastern Piedmont and at the Université de Rennes 1.
