Benjamin Lubin is a Clinical Associate Professor in the Information Systems Department at Boston University's Questrom School of Business. He holds office 621A in the Rafik B. Hariri Building at 595 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, MA 02215. His academic journey began with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from Harvard University in 1999, followed by six years working at BBN Technologies, where he contributed to advanced multi-agent modeling, scheduling, and logistics systems. He later returned to Harvard to complete his Ph.D. at the intersection of computer science, game theory, and economics. Dr. Lubin's research spans three primary areas: (1) mechanism design, particularly combinatorial auctions and exchanges that support efficient reallocation of goods with complex participant preferences; (2) application of spectral graph theory to advance social network analysis; and (3) leveraging network science and machine learning to improve healthcare delivery systems. His work demonstrates a consistent pattern of bridging theoretical computer science with practical economic applications, with recent publications showing increasing focus on healthcare applications while maintaining strong contributions to auction theory and network analysis. His research has been supported by significant funding from NIHCM and the Veterans Administration, and he has received prestigious recognition including the Siebel Fellowship and Yahoo Key Technical Challenge award. Dr. Lubin has mentored numerous graduate students including PhD candidates Vatche Ishakian, Marisabel Guevara, and Sarah Zheng, as well as Master's students Benedikt Buenz and Michael Weiss. Siebel Fellowship Yahoo Key Technical Challenge award As an educator, Dr. Lubin teaches several courses including IS 710 (Core MBA Class on Information Systems), IS 716 (Accelerated Part-Time Evening MBA), IS 717 and IS 756 (MSMBA Intensives), and QD601x (Business Experimentation on edX). His teaching materials include innovative approaches like using adventure games to teach web development and creating practical exercises for understanding analytics in business contexts. He has developed several software tools including JOpt for MIP programming, the Iterative Combinatorial Exchange market software, InvEigen for inverse eigenvector problems, SpectralGOF for network model goodness-of-fit testing, and SATS for spectrum auction instance generation.
