This group is dedicated to enhancing our understanding of inequality, human capital, labor markets, and behavioral economics. briq cooperates with institutions and universities, connecting innovative researchers and cross-disciplinary experts. Resident researchers at briq include Armin Falk and Florian Zimmermann.
visiting program
briq has initiated a visiting program in order to facilitate the exchange of ideas. We invite top-level researchers from the briq global network as briq Visiting Professors and briq Visiting Fellows with the intent of creating a European hub of resources and expertise. This involves both short and long-term visits, as well as participation in summer schools, workshops, and our regular research seminar. We aim to provide our visitors with a productive research environment in order to support and advance excellent research.

Researchers at briq work at large-scale projects such as the Global Preferences Survey (GPS), the briq Family Panel (BFP), and the ERC project MORALITY on the foundations of moral behavior. Furthermore, briq has partnered with DIE ZEIT to evaluate the Germany Talks initiative that demonstrates the potential of face-to-face discussions to improve societal cohesion.
