Piotr Dworczak is a researcher at Northwestern University specializing in market design, mechanism design, and information design. His work explores the economic principles underlying optimal persuasion, search markets, and redistribution through markets. Dworczak has contributed to the analysis of kidney exchange programs, vaccine prioritization, and auction mechanisms. His research also addresses the design of allocation mechanisms, property rights, and transparency in over-the-counter markets. He investigates how mechanisms can be optimized for both sophisticated and unsophisticated agents, emphasizing robust and Bayesian persuasion strategies. His studies highlight the interplay between market structures and policy interventions, offering insights into efficient resource allocation and incentive compatibility.
