Areas of interest
My research focuses mainly on causal decompositions in treatment effect models and on empirical crime work.My research follows two strands. My econometric work focuses on the identification of causal decompositions in treatment effect models, in particular in dynamic models in which agents adjust their behaviour in anticipation of a future treatment. My empirical work focuses on crime economics and forensic economics.
Postgraduate supervision
I am happy to supervise any topic in microeconometrics, as well as empirical work in crime, development, education, health or labour.Background
