He will be teaching in the UGA/OSU program at St. Anne's College, Oxford University, in the spring of 2009. Recent publications have focused on economic aspects of IP law, including theoretical papers on optimal patent remedies, the role transaction costs in patent law and the problem of patent pricing as well as two empirical studies on bestselling fiction and musical compositions from 1913-32.
