Research
My research focuses on international macroeconomics and
economic growth. In the first instance, I study the determination of
international price dispersion focusing on the importance of real factors such
as productivity and immigration. In the second instance, I study the sources of economic
welfare in frontier and non-frontier economies emphasizing the importance of
R&D and international technology diffusion. The latter is key to
understanding cross-country health outcomes as a distinct component of welfare
other than income.
