Breakfast Seminar with Fulbright Professor Peter Matthews
Programme:
8:30-9:00 - Breakfast mingle
9:00-10:00 - Presentation and discussion
Topic: Behavioral Public Policy
In this brief and informal talk, I will share a few examples of recent work with various collaborators that use experimental and/or behavioral methods to explore a range of public policy questions. I’ll also discuss the long-term research project on inequality I am starting here in Finland, a new behavioral initiative in Vermont and, perhaps most important, moderate what I hope will be a productive conversation about the future of such research, both at Hanken and in Finland!
