He has also been a research fellow on the systemic risk programme at Princeton University and is research associate at the Centre for the Analysis of Risk and Regulation at the London School of Economics. He has published numerous articles and books on risk-related topics, including Cellular Phones, Public Fears and a Culture of Precaution (Cambridge UP 2004).
