Paula Roldan starts PhD research at SBE and METRO
Paula Roldán Barraza will join METRO as a PhD researcher. She will be based both at SBE and at LAW and will be supervised by Iwan Bos (SBE, Department of Organisation, Strategy and Entrepreneurship), Niels Philipsen (METRO) and Kalpana Tyagi (IGIR). Her research topic is “Assessing the role of economic evidence in competition law enforcement. An international comparison”. The focus will be on the EU, US and Chile.
The research project will be partially funded by SBE (via the Co-Funding program of the GSBE) and by Paula’s teaching activities there, and partially by the Faculty of Law. Our hope and expectation is that this ‘formal’ collaboration between SBE and LAW will continue to expand and will lead to several joint activities in the domains of competition law , (micro)economics, consumer law, intellectual property and other areas. Feel free to reach out to Paula or the supervision team to discuss further ideas for collaboration.
