I also contribute to postgraduate Applied Business Project course, teaching, Experimental Methods for Economics and Finance. 

I am the main supervisor of Sebastian Medina, an ESRC PhD studentship winner (expected graduation 2028).

My research interests are in the field of behavioural and experimental economics. I am interested in the broad topics of discrimination, social and other-regarding preferences, as well as understanding the role that intelligence plays in decision making. In the past, I have conducted experiments in the laboratory and in the field. This work has been supported by the British Academy.

I am particularly interested in working with PhD students who wish to focus on understanding economic decision making in natural settings.

I am interested in projects in the following areas: 1. Any projects in behavioural and experimental economics (broadly defined). 2. The determinants of cooperation in infinitely repeated interactions. 3. Belief formation in strategic settings. 4. The role of behavioural biases in strategic settings.
