We argue that canonical heterogeneous-agent economies are unable to jointly account for the observed concentration of consumption, labor income, wealth, and capital income at the top. We first provide empirical evidence that the distributions of these four variables exhibit asymptotic power-law...

My research advances classical life history theory by integrating methods from evolutionary game theory. This approach sheds light on how interactions among individuals influence the evolution of life history strategies. Specifically, it explores the role of genetic conflicts between family members...

We derive wage equations with individual specific coefficients from a structural model of human capital investments over the life-cycle. This model allows for interruptions in labor market participation, and addresses missing data and attrition issues. We further control for selection in a flexible...

We study the effects of the introduction of common deposit insurance across countries in a model of cross-border banks with both endogenous risk-taking and within group risk-sharing possibilities. With national deposit insurance, there is inefficient ring-fencing of resources from healthy to...

Most online services and applications on the Internet rely on digital traces resulting from choices made by their users, in particular, by means of rating-based recommendation systems. Therefore, it is crucial to understand how such traces affect individual and collective decision-making. We have...

We investigate the causes and consequences of demographic disparities in product development. We focus on how insurance policies affect elderly enrollment in clinical trials. In 2000, Medicare extended coverage for clinical trial costs. This policy shifted the rate and direction of clinical...

How do long-distance commercial flight links affect social connectedness? Using a novel quantitative measure of friendship links developed by Bailey et al. (2018), we study how aviation affects the social ties between U.S. regions and foreign countries. To address issues of endogeneity between...
