Department of Strategy and Innovation

For the past 30 years at CBS, my research and teaching have focused on three main areas: appropriability and intellectual property rights, innovation strategy and management, and incentives to invention and innovation. Between 1993-2016, I was employed as an Associate Professor at CBS; in 2016, I became an external lecturer and Professor Emerita at CBS (Department of Strategy and Innovation). I have published widely in my research areas, including articles in Organization Science and the California Management Review. I have taught a number of different courses in several CBS masters programs (mainly Management of Innovation and Business Development, Law and Economics, and International Business), along with a bachelor course in Entrepreneurship on intellectual property rights, numerous elective courses, a course in the Agrobusiness program, and guest lectures in industrial Ph.D. courses. I have extensive experience  supervising masters theses, bachelors theses, and different types of business projects, and co-supervised two Ph.D students. I have received multiple research grants over the years and served, for example, as an expert evaluator for the European Commission and the U.S. National Science Foundation. I received my M.A. from Johns Hopkins University in international economics and politics.
