Biography
After completing my PhD in Economics at the University of Minnesota in 2002, I joined the Faculty of Economics of the Universidade Nova de Lisboa in Lisbon (Portugal) as an Assistant Professor, where I obtained my Agregação in 2008. Shortly after, I moved to the Faculty of Economics at the University of Cambridge, first as a Visiting Lecturer during a sabatical year from Nova, and then as a Lecturer from 2009 until 2012. In 2009 I became a Fellow of King's College (Cambridge). In 2012 I joined the Faculty of Business, Economics and Law at the University of Surrey as a Professor of Economics.
Research Interests
I have published several research papers on economic theory and game theory and also a book on the existence of Nash equilibrium (published by World Scientific Publishing).
Besides economic theory and game theory, my research interests include voting in large elections, dynamic risk sharing, experimental evidence in games, macroeconomic policy, financial and monetary economics.
