Research
My research focuses on issues at the interface of accounting and finance and their implications for investment analyses. I have been cited in top-tier academic journals such as Journal of Accounting and Economics, Journal of Financial Economics, Journal of Accounting Research, Accounting Review, Contemporary Accounting Research, and Journal of Economic Perspectives. I have published in high-quality journals such as Journal of Accounting and Public Policy, International Journal of Accounting, Financial Analysts Journal, Research in Accounting Regulation, and Pacific Basin Finance Journal. Three of my articles (Brown and Higgins 2005, Brown and Higgins 2001, and Higgins 1998) are often used as reading materials for Ph.D. seminars.
