Marek Pycia serves as Professor of Organizational Economics at the University of Zurich and Co-Director of the Zurich Center for Market Design. His research has driven tangible policy impacts including the U.S. kidney-transplant voucher program and school system redesigns, with publications in premier journals like American Economic Review and Econometrica . His academic foundation includes a Ph.D. in Economics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), complemented by prior faculty roles at UCLA, Pennsylvania State University, and Leon Koźmiński Academy of Entrepreneurship and Management, plus a visiting fellowship at Princeton University. Professor Pycia specializes in Market Design and Mechanism Design , where he bridges theoretical microeconomics with real-world applications in healthcare allocation and educational systems. His work emphasizes strategyproofness , simplicity , and efficiency in matching markets, influencing both academic frameworks and practical policy implementations globally. Recent publications (2024-2025) reveal a concentrated focus on simplifying mechanism design for discrete environments, advancing double auction theory, and optimizing information structures in trade. These works consistently apply game-theoretic principles to solve complex allocation problems across healthcare, education, and financial markets. Key recognition includes: Research Fellow at the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) Editorial board membership at Theoretical Economics , Journal of Economic Theory , and Games and Economic Behavior While specific grant details remain unmentioned, his editorial leadership and center directorship indicate active research funding. He supervises graduate work through the University of Zurich’s economics programs, though no named students appear in the source text. The Zurich Center for Market Design, which he co-directs, functions as an interdisciplinary hub connecting theoretical research with practitioners in healthcare, education, and public policy to implement novel market mechanisms.
