Moshe Babaioff

I am an Associate Professor at the School of Computer Science and Engineering at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. I am also a member of the Federmann Center for the Study of Rationality.

My main research interests are subjects on the border of Computer Science Theory, Game Theory, and Microeconomic Theory. In particular, I am interested in the foundations of Economics and Computation in the broad sense (including, but not limited to, Mechanism Design, Auction Theory, Game Theory, Microeconomics, Algorithmic Game Theory, Online Algorithms, Randomized Algorithms, Approximation Algorithms, and Fairness). 

I am serving on the editorial boards of ACM TEAC and GEB, and on the advisory board of TheoretiCS. I have served as Program co-Chair of ACM-EC 2017, as General Chair of ACM-EC 2014 and as Program co-Chair of NetEcon 2016. I have recently co-organized the Israel AGT seminar and Noam Nisan’s 60-th birthday workshop, and was co-chairing the Economics, Monetization, and Online Markets Track of WebConf 2023.

I was a Senior Principal Researcher at Microsoft Research, located in Israel. Before moving to MSR in Israel, I was a Researcher at Microsoft Research Silicon Valley (Mountain View, California). Prior to joining MSR I was a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of California at Berkeley.

I received my PhD from the Rachel and Selim Benin School of Computer Science and Engineering at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Noam Nisan. I received an M.Sc. in Computer Science and a B.Sc. in Computer Science and Mathematics, both from the Hebrew University.
