Professor Paul Heald, the current Fulbright-Hanken Distinguished Chair in Law and Economics, is the Albert J. Harno & Edward W. Cleary Chair in Law at the University of Illinois. He also serves as a fellow and researcher of CREATe at the University of Glasgow. He is a pioneer in the use of empirical methods to measure the effect of intellectual property law on markets for cultural goods, trademarks, and agricultural products.
