I am a former President of the Economic Science Association (ESA), a former President of the French Economic Association (AFSE), and the founding President of the French association of experimental economics (ASFEE). I am Fellow of the Economic Science Association, Fellow of the European Association of Labour Economists (EALE), and a member of the Academia Europaea, IZA and GLO. I have been awarded the Silver Medal of CNRS in 2017 and the Allais Memorial Prize in Behavioral Sciences in 2024.

I was a member of the French Low Wage Commission between 2017 and 2024.

My main research interests are behavioral and experimental economics applied to the analysis of the efficiency of incentives, the dynamics of social norms, ethics and dishonesty, biases in the transmission of information, and narratives. I have published more than 125 papers, in various journals including the American Economic Review, Economic Journal, Management Science, Journal of Labor Economics, Journal of Public Economics, Games and Economic Behavior, and PNAS.
