Currently, I am engaged in understanding realistic expectation formation processes of economic agents as well as their implications for financial markets and macroeconomic policies, using both theory and data. During 2018/2019, I have been a visiting fellow at Harvard University, while prior to the PhD I earned a MSc in Physics at University of Trieste.

His research expertise is in asset pricing, financial intermediation, and monetary policy. His recent works mainly focus on measuring the stability of the financial sector and the impact of financial regulation on the liquidity of safe assets, such as treasury bills and repurchase agreements.

He is currently pursuing various projects on behavioral political economy, which, broadly speaking, examines the implications of having behavioral agents (voters and politicians) in the electoral process.

Sandra Daudignon

She was teaching assistant at the Université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne and at the Université Cergy Pontoise for four years. She visited the University of Wisconsin Madison for one semester to consolidate her skills in computational economics. She has a background in quantitative economics with a master degree in empirical and theoretical research from the Paris School of Economics and from the Université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne. During the research master, she served as a research assistant at CEPII for one semester. She will defend her thesis early in the fall and will be on the 2020/2021 job market.

Olivier De Groote

My research is on empirical microeconomics, within the fields of labor economics and industrial organization. From an applied perspective, I am currently working on educational policies (early tracking, school/college choice) and environmental policies (solar panel subsidies). From a methodological perspective, I work on improving (dynamic) discrete choice models to reduce the computational burden, while relaxing assumptions that are likely to bias results of important applied questions.

Pierangelo De Pace

I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Economics at Pomona College. I have focused on issues relating to business cycle synchronization; the leading properties of the term structure of interest rates and of yield spreads; the dynamic behavior of nominal interest rates and spreads and their relationship with the business cycle; the cyclical characteristics of international capital flows; and the price dynamics of commodities and cryptocurrencies.
