Biography
After finishing my PhD in Economics in Uppsala 1999 I have been working as a researcher at the Institute for Labour Market Policy Evaluation (IFAU) for many years. In 2011 I started a new position as a Professor in Public Economics at the Department of Economics in Uppsala.
Since 2011, I am an adjunct member of the Prize Committee for the Alfred Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic sciences.
