Mathias Fjællegaard Jensen

My current research projects focus on the roles of gender and family in the labour market. By utilising Danish register data, I do research on gender variations in labour market outcomes as well as in responses to policy reforms. For example, in the paper I will present at EEA Virtual 2020, I test how the employment of task-specific skills and their returns depend on the gender of the worker by exploiting a novel combination of Danish job vacancy data and matched employer-employee register data. Before commencing my PhD in economics at Copenhagen Business School, I studied both economics and gender studies at the University of Cambridge. I visited the Centre for Economic Performance at the LSE from January to June 2018 and the Department of Economics at Stanford University in February 2020.

My name is Thomas Jungbauer, I am Assistant Professor of Strategy & Business Economics at the Johnson Graduate School of Management at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. I am an applied micro-economic theorist with diverse research interests covering market design, industrial organization, labor economics and entrepreneurship. I have been working on models of misrepresentation and manipulation, matching in the labor market when firms have market power, and the determinants of the branding decision in firms that sell vertically differentiated products. Recently, I started working on models related to the organization of innovation, and as well as the impact of online consumer reviews and online advertising on different industries. My newest paper deals with the connection of employee poaching, turnover, and managerial compensation. I am originally from the region close to Vienna, Austria, and received my PhD in Managerial Economics & Strategy from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University in 2016.
