Health Economist

Health and behavioral economics

Hello! I am a health economist at bcmed GmbH and lead consultant for medical technology and diagnostics.

My research broadly covers the economic foundations of prosocial behavior in organizational and health contexts, leveraging data sets with behavioral measures (e.g. preferences and information), behavioral interventions (e.g. sorting and motivating stem cell donors), and prosocial and health outcomes (e.g. stem cell donations, helping). 

I have been involved in a project with DKMS Germany, the largest recruiter of stem cell donors in Germany, on the behavioral economics of stem cell donor availability. Here, I have worked on identifiying how behavioral interventions shape donor follow-through, once already registered to donate. We are currently researching the impact of donor information on donor follow-through. 

Prior to my current position, I was a PhD student supervised by Patrick Kampkötter and co-supervised by Valeria Merlo in Tübingen
