I recently migrated my website to . A few things here and there still need work. Thank you for your understanding.
You can follow me on Bluesky at .
I am a French organizational economist. I am interested in non-monetary incentives and management practices in the workplace and their internal and external effects, and in the meta-science of economics (incl. open science). Trained as a theoretician, I also use causal inference, laboratory experiments, and computational methods (such as natural language processing) in my research. Secondarily, I am also interested in how information and opinion spread among groups of humans and how it affects their decisions, and in the workforce of European defence industry bases and militaries.
I have resumed working on my PhD (more details here) at CEREFIGE () at the University of Lorraine (, Nancy, Lorraine, France). My PhD is funded by the French National Research Agency ANR () grant ANR-23-CE26-0021 Wave and is supervised by Patrice Laroche and Anne Stévenot.
I am also an adjunct professor at the Department of Law, Economics, and Management at the University of Lorraine and a junior partner and the consulting editor at Standard Error Research Editors (, Chicago, United States).
Finally, I am involved in local politics in Nancy with Mathieu Klein ().
On my spare time, I enjoy going at the gym, hiking, photography, travelling, roller coasters and theme parks — among other things.
Notes
I write about the meta-science of economics, careers in economics and how economics interplay.
