Javiera Selman is a postdoctoral fellow in Economics and The Murphy Institute. She completed her Ph.D. in public administration from NYU in 2021. Her research areas are urban, public, and development economics, with a special interest in behavioral economics.
Established in memory of Charles H. Murphy, Sr. (1870-1954), and inspired by the vision of Charles H. Murphy, Jr. (1920-2002), The Murphy Institute exists to help Tulane faculty and students understand economic, moral, and political problems we all face and think about. More important, it exists to help us understand how these problems have come to be so closely interconnected.
