Short Bio
His research develops under the theme of the effect of technological change and labor force on the economy and society. His field is labor economics and urban economics with expertise on U.S. regional labor markets.
Currently, he addresses a series of agendas; the effect of immigration inflow and robot adoption on workplace injury rates, the link between automation technology and the opioid epidemic, the historical role of climate change on male labor force participation and the impact of A.I. on human creativity.
Previously, he worked in the field of bargaining theory. Using a canonical durable goods monopolist model under a deadline, I show that the buyers’ imperfect commitment to an earlier exit may elicit a compromise from the monopolist and generate the buyers’ premium. To test the implications, he ran experiments in a computer laboratory.
