She also serves as a visiting professor at the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart in Milan and the University of Turin. Additionally, she is a member of the Cross-Border Center on Tourism and Mountain Economies. Dr. Nava earned her undergraduate degree (laurea triennale) in Business Economics from the University of Aosta Valley and Economics from the University of Turin, both with highest honors (110 e lode). She completed her PhD in Economics with a focus on applied mathematics and statistics at the University of Turin's Vilfredo Pareto Doctoral School in 2014. Following her doctorate, she worked as a research fellow at the Department of Economics and Statistics Cognetti de Martiis at the University of Turin (2014-2016) and as a research grant recipient with the Department of Translational Medicine at the University of Eastern Piedmont (2016-2017). Dr. Nava's research focuses on econometrics, time series analysis in the frequency domain, price indices, Bayesian inference, and discrete choice models. Her work bridges theoretical statistical methods with practical applications in economics, energy markets, tourism, and public health. She has developed innovative approaches to price index construction, switching behavior analysis in electricity markets, and Bayesian methods for modeling complex economic phenomena. Her publications demonstrate a strong interdisciplinary approach, with research spanning economic statistics, public health applications, tourism economics, and energy market analysis. Recent work shows an increasing focus on applying machine learning techniques alongside traditional econometric methods, particularly in analyzing startup survival during economic crises and modeling consumer behavior in liberalized markets. Dr. Nava has received several prestigious awards and recognitions: TEM Summer School Grant, Aosta, Italy Civil Society Talents Fellowship, Giovanni Goria Foundation, Asti, Italy Junior DESPINA Fellow, Big Data Lab, Turin, Italy Google Early Career Researchers Travel Grant, ISBA Socialis Prize, 7th edition, for her thesis on Corporate Social Responsibility Honor Student Scholarship, Collegio Carlo Alberto, Moncalieri, Italy As an educator, Dr. Nava has taught extensively across multiple institutions including Statistics, Quantitative Methods for Management, Econometrics, and Bayesian Statistics. She has served as a reviewer for several academic journals including Economics of Innovation and New Technology, Italian Journal of Applied Statistics, L'Industria, and Bayesian Analysis. Her research projects include studies on cruise ship impacts on destinations, illegal gambling analysis, switching behavior in European electricity markets, and Bayesian methods for analyzing asbestos exposure effects on mesothelioma risk. Her work with the Cross-Border Center on Tourism and Mountain Economies reflects her commitment to regional economic development research.
