As I was recently made aware, a 2024 report by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy cites my paper "Nobel and novice: Author prominence affects peer review" (joint work with Jürgen Huber, Sabiou Inoua, Rudi Kerschbamer, Christian König-Kersting and Vernon Smith). The Biden administration report highlights efforts to enhance data accessibility and discusses the importance of establishing robust peer review systems for data to ensure its credibility within the research community. The report references our study in the context of discussing biases in the peer review process.
In its 2025 general assembly, the Society for Experimental Finance named me its Honorary Member. I am very grateful of this recognition - an honor that I now share with Nobel prize laureate Vernon Smith and the two founders of the society, Jürgen Huber and Michael Kirchler. The Society for Experimental Finance is an association of academic researchers in experimental finance. It was founded in 2013 and today has around 500 members, and it was my honor to serve it first as Secretary (2013-2018) and then as Managing Director (2021-2025).
