Dear Colleagues,
I am happy to share that I will be hiring a PhD student in Economics to join my new research group at ESCP Business School (Berlin campus), starting 1 September 2026.
I am looking for candidates with strong research interests in behavioral, experimental, or applied microeconomics—broadly defined. Topics of particular interest include beliefs, economic disparities, narratives, moral decision-making, and childhood or adolescent development. The position is fully funded and offers substantial opportunities for independent research, close supervision, and collaboration within my group at ESCP as well as the wider Berlin economics community.
This position is also suitable for candidates who would like to spend one year as a Pre-Doc, while preparing to apply to other PhD programmes. Candidates who would prefer to be considered for a Pre-Doc rather than the PhD position should indicate this clearly in their cover letter.
The application deadline is 28 February 2026.
The full advertisement and application details are available here:

If you know candidates who may be interested in this position, I would be very grateful if you could share this with them.
Best wishes,
Kai
