Currie received a B.A. in economics in 1982 and a M.A. in economics in 1983 from the University of Toronto. She then pursued graduate studies at Princeton University, where she received a Ph.D. in economics in 1988.[7]
Currie is best known for her work on the impact of poverty and government anti-poverty policies on the health and well-being of children over their life cycle. She has written about early intervention programs, expansions of the Medicaid program, public housing, and food and nutrition programs. Beginning the early 1990s, she was one of the first economists to evaluate such programs from the point of view of the child. In work with Duncan Thomas and Eliana Garces, she showed that children in a public preschool program named Head Start made gains relative to their own siblings in terms of both test scores and longer-term measures of attainment.[11][12] In work with Jonathan Gruber, she showed that expansions of public health insurance to low income women and children improved access to care and reduced infant mortality.[13][14] Research on the effects of the safety net on American children is reviewed in her books: ″Welfare and the Wellbeing of Children″, and "The Invisible Safety Net."[15][16] More recently, she has advocated for cash transfers, in conjunction with other safety net programs, given their helpfulness in raising families out of poverty.[17]
Currie has investigated broader socioeconomic determinants of fetal and child health, including health care,[18][19]child maltreatment,[20][21] nutrition,[22][23][24]environmental pollution,[25][26][27] and maternal education.[28][29][30] Her work showing that the adoption of EZ-Pass improved infant health in Pennsylvania and New Jersey received wide attention.[31] Some of her work showing disparities in fetal exposure to pollution and their consequences is summarized in her 2011 Ely lecture to the American Economics Association.[32] With Anna Aizer and Hannes Schwandt, she has shown that inequality in mortality is falling among U.S. children, at the same time that inequality in mortality among adults has been increasing, and attributed this improvement to the protective effect of safety net programs.[33][34] Her work on health care has focused on differences in physician behavior as one of the key determinants in variation in the care both children and adults receive.[35][36] Currie's work on child mental health shows that mental health is a stronger predictor of future outcomes than many common childhood physical health problems and that children's mental health is impacted by early life factors.[37][38]
Overall, her work shows that early childhood, including the fetal period, is of great importance for the development of children's productive capabilities (their 'human capital') and that programs targeting early childhood can be particularly effective in remediating childhood disadvantage.[39][40]
This work represents a departure from earlier work on collective bargaining in the public sector.[41][42]

In Arabia Saudita i Diritti LGBT non vengono riconosciuti; l'omosessualità risulta molto spesso essere un argomento tabù e quindi non affrontato all'interno della società: essendo inoltre considerata illegale viene punita con la reclusione, punizioni corporali giudiziarie eseguite in pubblico fino a giungere, nei casi più gravi, fino alla pena di morte. Le persone transgender sono generalmente confuse ed equiparate agli omosessua…
