His research interests in political economy and public economics are reflected in publications analyzing electoral control, career concerns with observable actions, and policy design in polarized environments.

The most recent articles span interdisciplinary domains, including medical research on colorectal cancer and physician-scientist training, alongside political economy studies on polarization and electoral accountability. Despite varied topics, the unifying theme appears to be systemic analysis of institutions and biological processes.
