Welcome!

Hi, I’m Ines. I work at the Future of Life Institute, an organization focused on steering transformative technologies - especially advanced AI - away from extreme risks and toward benefiting humanity.

I received my PhD in Economics from Oxford University, where my research focused on education, healthcare economics, and behavioural economics. I’ve published in leading peer-reviewed journals like Health Economics and the Journal of Human Resources. You can learn more about my academic research here.

Alongside academia, I've also worked with science communicators and authors (including Veritasium and Ali Abdaal) to translate evidence-based ideas for public audiences and launch several New-York Times Bestselling books. 

On the side, I write about the changing nature of modern work and how we navigate attention, ambition, agency in a digital world. You can learn more about my writing here.
