Aniko Öry

Professor Öry''s research interests focus on industrial organization, quantitative marketing, and microeconomic theory. In particular, she is interested in the analytical modeling of dynamic interactions of firms with customers, including dynamic pricing in environments with asymmetric information structures. Recently, she is also interested in how firms can provide incentives for word-of-mouth and how they can manage the content of it.

Professor Öry joined the School of Management in 2015 after completing her PhD in Economics at UC Berkeley and being a postdoctoral associate with the Cowles Foundation for Research in Economics at Yale. Prior to her graduate studies, she has received a Diplom degree in Mathematics from the Ludwig-Maximilians University in Munich, Germany.
