Francesco Moscone's research focuses on sustainable health expenditure, investigating possible savings from both demand and supply perspectives. Regarding the demand side, he explores scenarios like potential savings if the smoking population transitions to reduced-risk products like vaping, if heavy drinkers shift to moderate drinking, and if individuals become more physically active. On the supply side, his research delves into questions such as the potential productivity gains in hospitals when physicians adopt more cost-effective medical technologies.

Francesco's studies have garnered widespread global media attention, with over 1000 citations and full interviews from North America, Central and South America, Europe, and the Middle East. His work has been featured in various newspapers and magazines, including but not limited to The Independent, The Times, Metro, Standard, Daily Mail, Daily Express, The Bulletin (by Executive), Kuwait News,The Egyptian Gazette, Malina Standard, Politics Home, Presa Latina, La Razon, Dossier Politico, Arab News, La Repubblica, Venerdi’ di Repubblica, Corriere della Sera, Unita’, ANSA, Panorama della Sanita’, Abruzzo Economia, About-Pharma, Il Giornale, La Stampa, Libero, il Sussidiario, Il Sole 24 ore, In Terris. He has also been interviewed on the UK TV program GB News by Nigel Farage, and on the radio by Martin Stanford for LBC, by Kait Borsay for Times Radio, and by Simone Spetia for Sole 24. Additionally, his research was discussed on the Israeli television Channel 9.
