Femke Cnossen

University of Groningen

I am a PhD student at the University of Groningen, with a main focus on Labour Economics. My PhD thesis revolves around three core issues: tasks, skills and meaning at work. I am interested in what it is that people are exactly doing at work, how it relates to their capabilities, and when they feel they can thrive in their jobs. In my research, I like to combine survey data to administrative data, to find how workers' perceptions of their work help us explain their labour market careers.

Daniel Croner

University of Vienna

I am currently employed as a postdoctoral researcher on a project about climate policy delegation. My research interests comprise all issues of environmental economics. In my work so far, I was specializing on Directed Technical Change, Input-Output Analysis, Environment and Trade and International Environmental Agreements. I graduated from the University of Regensburg with a Diploma in Mathematics in 2012. In 2017 I obtained my Doctoral Degree in economics from TU Vienna.

Bocconi University

I am a PhD Candidate at Bocconi University working in Behavioral Finance, Behavioral Economics and Asset Pricing. Currently, I am engaged in understanding realistic expectation formation processes of economic agents as well as their implications for financial markets and macroeconomic policies, using both theory and data. During 2018/2019, I have been a visiting fellow at Harvard University, while prior to the PhD I earned a MSc in Physics at University of Trieste.

Martijn de Vries

Tilburg University

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Finance with a background in econometrics. I theoretically determine the implications of non-standard preferences or beliefs. In my job market paper, I contribute to the literature by showing the importance of time-varying risk preferences, explaining its implications, and performing a calibration. I show that time-varying risk preferences provide a relatively simple mechanism to explain recent findings on the shape of the equity term structure and its cyclicality.

Cyril Dell'Eva

University of Pretoria

I am currently a postdoc at university of Pretoria. During my postdoc I was also a research fellow at the South African Reserve Bank where I worked on the QPM. My fields of research are macroeconomics and international finance. I am particularly interested in the links between the Foreign Exchange market and exchange rates movements which could alter economies stability. I tackle these issues noth from an empirical and a theoritical point of view. I also explore models with adaptive learning which allows to consider non fully rational agents.

Hunan University

I am an associate professor of Hunan University. I received a Ph.D. from the Chinese University of Hong Kong. My research lies in the area of labor economics, behavioral and experimental economics, and applied micro-econometrics.

I study various topics in microeconomics mainly using dataset derived from field experiments and self-designed survey.
