Michael Allan Ribers

Michael Allan Ribers serves as Assistant Professor and External Researcher in the Department of Economics at the University of Copenhagen, with concurrent postdoctoral employment at the German Institute for Economic Research since February 2019. His research is currently funded by the ERC grant ABRSEIST, focusing on antibiotic resistance dynamics and information-learning mechanisms in clinical treatment decisions.

Ribers specializes in empirical microeconomics with concentrated expertise in health economics, leveraging computational economics frameworks, structural modeling techniques, and machine learning methodologies. His work critically examines how algorithmic systems interact with human decision-making processes in healthcare contexts, particularly investigating prescription behaviors and resistance patterns in antibiotic usage.

Analysis of his publication history reveals a cohesive research trajectory centered on human-AI collaboration in medical decision-making, with progressive methodological sophistication from foundational working papers (2019-2020) to peer-reviewed journal articles (2022-2024). His studies consistently address data valuation, payoff structures, and skill variation in prediction systems, demonstrating increasing interdisciplinary impact through collaborations with co-authors Huang and Ullrich.
