Coupling by volume conduction as a wireless power transfer and communications method for threadlike biomedical implants.
Although the use of volumetric conduction to power wireless implants has been experimentally validated in recent years, a theoretical framework to determine the power and efficiency obtained by minimally invasive implants ...
Essays in labor economics and structural change
This thesis studies questions at the intersection of labor economics and the literature of structural change. The first chapter empirically assesses the impact of emigration on structural change. Exploiting plausibly ...
Essays on high-dimensional bayesian inference

Defining DYRKs interactome: approaches for the characterization of proximity-dependent interactions and identification of direct substrates
Dual-specificity tyrosine-regulated kinases (DYRKs) are a conserved family of protein kinases present in all eukaryotes. In mammals, the association of DYRKs with a wide variety of putative substrates and interactors, in ...
Algebraic techniques for universal succinct arguments
In this thesis, we make theoretical and practical contributions to the design of succinct arguments with universal setups in the pairing-based setting. We first introduce a new primitive, Checkable Subspace Sampling (CSS) ...
Essays on statistical inference in non-regular semiparametric models
This thesis consists of three chapters which relate to problems of statistical inference in (potentially) non-regular semiparametric models. Chapter 1 considers hypothesis testing problems in semiparametric models which ...
Essays in behavioral economics
