Ali Yurukoglu is the Jonathan B. Lovelace Professor of Economics at Stanford Graduate School of Business[1]. His research is in industrial organization. He uses game theory and statistics to study pricing regulation in the cable and satellite television industry and the effect of mergers between firms at different points on the supply chain[2]. His earlier research focused on the media and telecommunications industries, studying a la carte pricing regulations in cable television[3] and negotiations and mergers between cable channels and distributors.

Ali Yurukoglu earned his BA in economics and mathematics from Northwestern University and a PhD in economics from New York University’s Stern School of Business in 2009. His academic career began as an assistant professor of economics at the Stanford Graduate School of Business from 2009 to 2013 and as a visiting assistant professor at the Department of Economics at Harvard University in 2013-14.  In 2015, he was promoted to associate professor and, in 2022, to full professor at the Stanford Graduate School of Business.

One of his papers measured the persuasive effects of slanted news and tastes for like-minded news exploiting cable channel positions as exogenous shifters of cable news viewership[4][5][6]. Several papers analyzed the concentration and market power in various product markets.[7][8][9]
