I am Professor of Economics at Universidad Pública de Navarra (Pamplona, Spain) since 2007, Research Fellow of IZA since 2003 and Research Fellow of Global Labor Organization since 2017. I received a Ph.D. in Applied Economics at the University of Minnesota and was a post-doctoral Marie Curie Research Fellow at the London School of Economics and Political Science. I have been Visiting Fellow at Princeton University, the Centre for Economic Performance (LSE), UC Santa Cruz, Johns Hopkins University, and the Research Department of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, among others. My research interests are in macroeconomics and industrial organization. I have also done research on the impact of labor market flexibility on employment and job flows, and on financial intermediation and economic development.
