My research is situated in the area of empirical financial accounting. My dissertation research at Stanford University focused on earnings prediction and accounting-based equity valuation, with a specific application in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry. I also investigated the role of earnings and R&D quality measures in a real options valuation model. Another research interest is in initial public offerings (IPOs), with a particular focus on the (failure) risk assessment and the pricing of the risk. Recently, I have conducted research on the effects of the implementation of IFRS (international financial reporting standards) and the information processing by financial analysts. I have published my articles in the Journal of Accounting Research, the Accounting Review, European Accounting Review, Journal of Business Finance and Accounting, Journal of Accounting, Auditing & Finance, Journal of International Financial Management and Accounting, Financial Management. I am the president of the EAA for the period 2017-2019 and have been a member of the EAA Management Committee since 2013. I am an associate editor of Asian-Pacific Journal of Accounting & Economics, associate editor of the special issue at the Journal of Accounting, Auditing & Finance of 2016, and member of the editorial board of Contemporary Accounting Research (CAR).
