Hi, my name is Baiba, I'm a senior researcher and behavioral scientist based in Zurich.

My research explores the topic of behavioral governance, bridging academic insights with practical applications.

I combine lab experiments, field data, and economic theory to uncover
why people do what's right – and how to design systems that foster ethical behavior.
