Intro

welcome again to my personal website.

I am Associate Professor of Economics at Business School UAI, Chile. Before this position I was Associate Professor of Economics at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. My research has been focused in the field of game theory and its applications in industrial economics and market design. Besides my theoretical work, I have devoted efforts to participate interdisciplinary research groups to attack problems in areas such that “Law and Competition Policy”, “Organ Transplantation” and “Firm´s Strategies”. In particular, our research in organ transplantation has served as the basis of major institutional changes in Chile and directly influenced recent law reforms.

In terms of my professional activities, I have been a permanent consultant in antitrust, regulation, auctions and strategic design and other issues in industrial organization; both for private and public institutions. Also, several times I have been requested to attend as an Expert Witness to the Antitrust Court of Chile, Expert in telecommunication regulatory process, and in other arbitration issues.
