Margarita Kirneva

I am a 5th year PhD candidate in Economics at CREST-Ecole Polytechnique working under the supervision of Olivier Gossner and Matías Núñez


I will join CUNEF Universidad as an Assistant Professor in September, 2024!


My main research interests lie in the field of Microeconomic Theory, with a special focus on strategic information transmission and its applications to political economy and industrial organization. More precisely I study strategic interactions between informed expert(s) and uninformed decision maker(s) in the presence of a conflict of interests focusing on the effect of the multidimensionality of the decision environment. I am also interested in the design of "good" voting mechanisms for committees.

In the Fall 2021/22 I visited the Economics Department of Northwestern University, invited by Bruno Strulovici


Primary Field: Microeconomic Theory
