Ana Malnar

Ana Malnar is an economics faculty member at the Faculty of Economics, University of Rijeka (EFRI), where she holds the position of Assistant with a Master of Economics degree. She teaches across undergraduate and graduate programs, maintaining an office at Chair 56 on the 3rd floor and can be contacted at ana.malnar@efri.uniri.hr.

Her research interests encompass several key economic domains:

• Microeconomic theory and analysis
• Consumer behavior and decision-making frameworks
• Market structures from perfect competition to oligopoly
• Economic dimensions of social literacy
• Civic responsibility and its economic implications
• Religion's impact on economic behavior and growth

An interesting discrepancy exists between her teaching profile in economics and the medical oncology publications attributed to her name in Google Scholar. While her course materials demonstrate deep expertise in microeconomic theory and applications, the scholarly articles focus on plasma cell disorders and multiple myeloma treatments, suggesting either an unusual interdisciplinary career or likely a case of mistaken identity with another researcher.

Her teaching philosophy emphasizes developing students' ability to 'think as an economist' through both theoretical frameworks and practical analytical tools, with particular attention to mathematical and graphical approaches to economic analysis. She contributes significantly to both foundational microeconomics education and specialized courses examining economics' intersection with social phenomena.
