I have been a “Research Fellow” at the Federal Reserve Bank of Saint Louis since 2004. Prior to that I visited the St. Louis Fed for extended periods of time in 2002 and 2003. I was also a visiting researcher at the Bank of Canada in 1999 and 2003. Recently, I have worked as a “time series” consultant for Macroeconomic Advisers. As of 2007, I have just joined the Executive Committee of the Society for Nonlinear Dynamics and Econometrics. In addition, I have been involved in the organization of the three conferences listed below:
