        <h1>About Me</h1>
        <div class="intro-text">
            <p>I earned my Bachelor of Law from Shahid Beheshti University in Iran and completed my Master's in Public Economics, Law and Politics (PELP) at Leuphana University in Germany. Since 2020, I have been pursuing dual PhDs in Law at Bonn University and in Economics at Hamburg University</p>
			<p>Since 2020, I have been also working as a research associate at he Institute of Law and Economics (ILE) at the University, collaborating with Stefan Voigt, and at the Max Planck Institute for Research on Collective Goods, as part of Christoph Engel's group.</p>
			<p>My research interests lie in the realms of empirical legal studies and quantitative social science. I use both experimental and observational data to study a vast spectrum of human behaviours influence by social and legal norms. Specifically, some behaviours I am interested in include: 
			<br>
			<ul>
                <li>Choices related to compliance with legal norms</li>
				<li>Decision-making regarding contract terms</li>
				<li>The production and impact of misinformation</li>
				<li>Formulating effective legal responses to counter misinformation</li>
			</ul>
