Academic focus:

Quantitative marketing, industrial organization.

Research summary:

A separate line of research answers policy-relevant questions related to consumers’ heath choices, looking at 1) what drives nutrition choices by consumers and 2) what are the effect of advertising on consumers’ adherence to prescription medication and subsequent effects on health outcomes?
