I
am assistant professor in economics and entrepreneurship at Erasmus
University Rotterdam and associate editor of Small Business Economics.
My research interests are in the fields of entrepreneurship and innovation.
Recently, I worked on the microeconomic foundations of entrepreneurship
and various empirical studies on start-up decisions. I am also involved
in a large-scale research effort on genetic determinants of economic
behavior.
A selection of my papers is
accessible online.
