Note: The source material includes a first-person summary describing him as a “research scientist, research professor, and director of a research center,” while the third-person biography identifies his role as Research Assistant Professor at the Applied Economy Research Center. I’ve used the more specific, verifiable title (Research Assistant Professor) throughout — worth confirming his exact current title before publishing, particularly whether \”director\” reflects a separate or more recent appointment.
