Welcome. My research work deals with applied microeconomics and, even more imprecisely, with the empirical content of incentives and game theory. Empirical refers here to both experimental methods and econometrics on observational data.

Note: I’m neither an “econometrician” nor an “experimentalist” (but, anyway, I don’t think I would put my health in the hands of a doctor who claims to be a “stethoscopist”). The results from my work have applications in, e.g., labor economics, environmental economics, political economics, law and economics. The representative works below will give you a quick overview of my main area of research.
