Research interests

I am interested in the microeconomics of technology change and its implications to business management and public policy. My previous and ongoing research includes: the political economy of public biomedical R&D (in the U.S.), the effect of patent policy on firms' technology investments and boundaries, and the determinants of multinational corporations' R&D location decisions.
