Professor He:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  \u201c<\/strong>I am studying how trade and immigration affect COVID-related xenophobia; whether Amazon raises its prices after its competing retailers disappear; what limits coordination within organizations; and how students in different classrooms can affect each others\u2019 academic performances.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor <\/strong>Kurzfeld:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  \u201c<\/strong>I examine the principles of rationality that help us understand criminal behavior, social responsibility, and ideas of justice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor <\/strong>Lewis:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  \u201cI am an environmental economist. I am a microeconomist who specializes in questions related to natural resources and pollution control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  I study how incentives motivate behavior (think carbon taxes, gas taxes, bottle deposits).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  I also work to make sure environmental goods and services have a \u201cseat at the table\u201d by thinking about their value in economic terms. What is the value of the Grand Canyon? What is the value of a brown bear?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Murray:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  \u201c<\/strong>I\u2019m interested in the plight of the least well-off and what economic theory and data can tell us about improving their lot.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Nguyen:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI study the impact of land policies in developing countries on farmers\u2019 economic decisions, such as their choices regarding technology adoption and migration.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor <\/strong>Riera<\/strong>-Crichton:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  \u201cAs a macroeconomist, I typically deal with the structure, performance, behavior, and decision-making of the whole, or aggregate, economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  While two main areas of macroeconomic research are long-term economic growth and shorter-term business cycles. I typically focus on the latter with an emphasis on open-economy and emerging markets. My interests range from understanding the effects of fiscal (taxation and public expenditure) and monetary policy on the performance of developing countries\u2019 economies to understanding the drivers of the movement of capital across nations. I\u2019m also interested in the determinants and effects of changes in international prices, especially the prices of international currencies (exchange rates) and the prices of internationally traded commodities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor <\/strong>Rakitan:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am fascinated by energy and its relationship to the environment, agriculture, and natural resources consumption.  I try to characterize the tradeoffs that energy requires and assess the overall costs and benefits.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Shea:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  \u201c<\/strong>As a macroeconomist, I am interested in what determines a country\u2019s short and long-term economic performance. Why are there recessions? Why are some countries so much wealthier than others? I am especially interested in how incomplete or inaccurate information can cause households and firms to make decisions that impact the overall economy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Subramanian:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  \u201c<\/strong>I am interested in how women interact with the economy in low- and middle-income countries, particularly with whether, how, and where they work.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
