Carrière

I am currently Professor of Economics at the Faculty of Law, Economics and Political Science at the Université Bourgogne Europe. My research focuses on the economics of growth, with a particular emphasis on innovation and the effects of sector-specific regulations. I use panel econometric approaches using individual, meso- or macro-economic data. I have mainly taught statistics and econometrics, from the first year of a Bachelor’s degree to the second year of a Master’s degree. I’m currently Dean of the Faculty.
