Profile
Edoardo Peruzzi is a postdoctoral researcher in the ERC-funded project “MODEL TRANSFER – Model Transfer and its Challenges in Science: The Case of Economics” under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Catherine Herfeld. As part of the MODEL TRANSFER project, his current emphasis involves examining the transfer of game theory from mathematics to diverse economic domains. Additionally, he explores the conceptual relationships between behavioral and neoclassical models, investigating whether the introduction of psychological theories into economic models may be construed as scientific progress.
Edoardo studied philosophy and economics at the Scuola Normale Superiore, the University of Pisa, and the University of Siena. He was a visiting scholar at the TINT Centre for Philosophy of Social Science at the University of Helsinki and the Center for the History of Political Economy at Duke University. During his doctoral research, Edoardo studied the application of economic theory in legal proceedings, employing tools from philosophy of economics, philosophy of science, and empirical analysis.
