She is broadly interested in digital marketplaces and e-commerce. Particularly, her research looks at how consumers make use of various cues in an e-commerce setting, and how these cues might have an impact on decision making. Examples include user-generated content such as reviews\/ratings and consumer questions about a product, as well as non-focal prices advertised by the platform on the product page. The primary methodologies she uses are causal inference, experiments\/quasi-experiments and applied machine learning. Previously, she was a research associate in the Social Informatics Research Group at the Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta, where she worked on web-based virtual communities and how they can be mobilized to build social capital through on-line education. She did her B.Sc (Calcutta University) and M.Sc (Warwick University, as a Commonwealth scholar) in Economics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8550,"template":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/hic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/18089"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/hic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/hic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/profile"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/hic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8550"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/hic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/18089\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":22345,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/hic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/18089\/revisions\/22345"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/hic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18089"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
