　　保尔•米格罗姆（Paul Milgrom）：斯坦福大学教授，在拍卖理论和机制设计理论方面享有盛誉。1979年毕业于斯坦福大学，获得商学博士学位，目前是斯坦福大学人类学和社会科学教授、经济学教授。他还在哈佛大学和MIT授课。米格罗姆教授是美国艺术与科学院、美国计量经济学学会会员。

　　Paul Milgrom教授研究领域广泛，包括现实世界的拍卖设计和其他市场、组织经济学、有限理性和经济史等。他与约翰·罗伯茨（John Roberts）合著的《经济学:组织与管理》（Economics,Organization,and Management）（1992）一书是十分著名的教材。

　　Paul Milgrom教授也领导团队为许多国家，包括美国、德国、墨西哥、加拿大等设计频道、公用事业拍卖机制。

　　在拍卖领域，斯坦福大学经济系终身教授保罗•米格罗姆(Paul•Milgrom)无疑是一个不可忽视的名字。1993年，米格罗姆接受美国前总统克林顿的委托，参与(FCC)美国联邦电信委员会的电信运营执照的拍卖工作，天才地完成了拍卖机制的主要设计，使FCC的拍卖大获成功，因此，米格罗姆成为全球拍卖领域和产业经济学界最知名的人物之一。

　　米格罗姆教授的研究成果发表在Amerian Economic Review,Econometrica等知名经济学期刊上，他现在的研究兴趣是激励理论、计划、拍卖市场设计。他因在频谱拍卖设计方面的工作而闻名于世。

　　保尔•米格罗姆教授最近的著作“《拍卖理论与实务》（Putting Auction Theory To Work）”已于2004年由剑桥大学出版社出版，结合拍卖理论和实务，受到高度推崇。

　　Paul Milgrom is the Shirley and Leonard Ely professor of Humanities and Sciences in the department of economics at Stanford University. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the holder of an honorary doctorate from the Stockholm School of Economics. Links to his curriculum vita, reprints of journal publications, working papers, teaching materials and former students’ websites are found in the frame on the left of this page.

　　Professor Milgrom proudly congratulates two of his former students/dissertation advisees who have recently won major awards:

　　Susan Athey, for winning the 2007 John Bates Clark medal, which “is awarded biennially to that American economist under the age of forty who is adjudged to have made the most significant contribution to economic thought and knowledge.”

　　Joshua Gans, for winning the 2007 Australian Young Economist Award, which is awarded biennially to “honour that Australian economist under the age of forty who is deemed to have made a significant contribution to economic thought and knowledge.”

　　Milgrom has made well-known contributions to many areas of economics, including auctions, incentive theory, industrial economics, economic history, economics of manufacturing, economics of organizations, and game theory. His book with John Roberts, Economics, Organization and Management, opened a new area to economic research.

　　He is best known, however, for his contributions to the theory of auctions and for pioneering contributions to the practice of auction design. According to the National Science Foundation’s account (America’s Investment in the Future), Milgrom was the main academic contributor to the original FCC spectrum auction design – the simultaneous ascending auction. This design, which Milgrom developed with colleagues Robert Wilson and Preston McAfee, has been copied and adapted for dozens of auctions of radio spectrum, electricity, and natural gas involving hundreds of billion dollars worldwide. He advised Google on its IPO auction of shares, Yahoo! on the design of an advertising marketplace, Microsoft Networks on sponsored search auctions, the Oregon Public Utilities Commission on sales of electrical generating assets, Mexico on privatization auctions of state-owned assets, and spectrum regulators in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Germany, and Mexico on sales of radio spectrum. He has also advised bidders in several major auctions, including helping SpectrumCo to save over $1 billion in US spectrum auction #66.

　　Milgrom founded Market Design, Inc to bring new scholarship on market design to practical applications. Useful links to market design scholarship, particularly ones emphasizing applications to matching markets, can be found on the websites of Professors Alvin Roth and Muriel Niederle.

　　Milgrom’s book Putting Auction Theory to Work was published by Cambridge University Press in 2004 and immediately celebrated by leading economists and practitioners. Lecture slides and problem sets for an auction theory course based on this book are available for download and extra material is available on request. Errata for the book are also available. In addition, slides are available for Milgrom’s 2006 mini-courses taught at Gerzensee and at the Stockholm School of Economics on Topics in Market Design.

　　Paul Milgrom is also affiliated with CRA International, which provides economic analysis for business consulting and litigation support., and Inflexion Point Strategy, which is an intellectual property investment bank. He is married to Eva Meyersson Milgrom and has two children: Josh Thurston-Milgrom and Elana Thurston-Milgrom . Eva’s son is Erik Meyersson.
