TEACHING
I am not
teaching in Fall 2012.
In
Spring 2013, I am teaching Topics in Industrial Organization (MECO 6360;
crosslisted with MECO 6340) for PhD students [Syllabus
from Spring 2012] and two sections of Business Economics (MECO 6303)
for Master students.
Message to UTD students: I am available as sponsor for independent
study projects on contracts, antitrust, intellectual property,
industry standardization, regulation (of product or financial
markets), and the intersection of product market competition and corporate
governance/finance.
RESEARCH
My research interests lie in contract theory and industrial organization with
applications in law and economics (contract law, antitrust, intellectual
property) and finance.
I am
co-organizing the Finance Reading Group. The
topic in Fall 2012 is Empirics of Asymmetric Information.
