Nicola Giuseppe Persico (born 1967) is an Italian-American economist. He is the John L. and Helen Kellogg Professor of Managerial Economics & Decision Sciences at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, where he directs the Center for Mathematical Studies in Economics & Management.

Education and career

Persico received his laurea from Bocconi University in 1991 and his Ph.D. from Northwestern University in 1996, both in economics. He then served as an assistant professor at the University of California, Los Angeles for one year before leaving for the University of Pennsylvania. In 2006, he left his position as an associate professor of economics at the University of Pennsylvania to become a full professor of economics at New York University.

Persico's research covers multiple disciplines within economics, including political economy and labor economics. This includes multiple studies he has co-authored which found a positive relationship between someone's height as a teenager and their income later in life. He and his colleagues have also shown that it is better to do one task at a time (sequentially) than to do multiple tasks simultaneously.
