About me:

• M.Sc. in Mathematics (1996) from Radboud University Nijmegen (NL);

• Ph.D. in Economics (2000) from CentER for Economic Research at Tilburg University (NL). 

As a microeconomic theorist, I focus on designing and analyzing fair/stable, efficient, and strategy-proof mechanisms to 

• assign indivisible objects to economic agents (e.g., school/university seats to children/students and related labor markets); 

• facilitate exchanges in markets where goods or services are traded without the use of money (e.g., kidney exchange, time banks, and Erasmus exchange). 

Keywords: matching theory, market design, game theory, microeconomics, social choice theory, and operations research.
