I am a member of the MIT Initiative for the Digital Economy at the Sloan School of Management and the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. I am also an Affiliate Researcher with Rockwool Foundation, Berlin.
I will join CUNEF University as an Assistant Professor in September 2026.
My research applies theory, machine learning, and causal inference to study science and innovation. I focus particularly on knowledge production in teams and the role of AI and automation in shaping scientific and technological progress.
