Okay. Can I do it again? That was really
00:00:02
good. Okay.
00:00:03
>> I'm Marin Vero. I'm an assistant
00:00:05
professor of business economics and
00:00:07
public policy. I'm originally from
00:00:10
Uruguay. I have a PhD in economics from
00:00:13
Northwestern University after which I
00:00:15
did a one-year posttock at Princeton
00:00:17
University. My research is in
00:00:19
microeconomic theory and mechanism
00:00:21
design. And in particular, I'm
00:00:23
interested in studying the design of
00:00:26
economic policies in situations in which
00:00:28
there is very limited information about
00:00:31
how people might behave and what their
00:00:33
preferences are. I became interested in
00:00:36
this research area I think mostly
00:00:38
through interacting with faculty during
00:00:41
my PhD and talking to people who were
00:00:45
very strong both in thinking about
00:00:47
economic problems very rigorously but at
00:00:49
the same time thinking about their real
00:00:51
world applications and [music] how they
00:00:52
affect policym what I'm the most excited
00:00:56
about here at Wharton is really like
00:00:58
working with the people so I get to work
00:01:01
with like some like brilliant colleagues
00:01:03
and also get to know like super good
00:01:05
students. So, I'm kind of mostly looking
00:01:07
forward to those interactions.
