Roy-ADRES Seminar with S. Nageeb Ali (Penn State)

S. Nageeb Ali is Professor of Economics at Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) which he joined in 2015. Previously he held a faculty position at University of California at San Diego (UC San Diego) and was a visiting researcher and professor at Harvard and at Microsoft Research. Among his numerous editorial duties, he is notably Co-Editor of the American Economic Journal: Microeconomics and Foreign Editor of the Review of Economic Studies.

He is specialised in economic theory, focusing much of his research on voting behaviour, particularly formalizing the forces that drive political polarization when policies “benefit some but hurt others.” He also works on modelling issues of consumer data and privacy, looking at the effects of regulations that give consumers control over their data. Regularly published in the top tier international journals, he was elected a Fellow of the Econometric Society this year. He has also won a number of refereeing and teaching awards over the years.
