I am an Associate Professor of International Law and the former Director of the PhD Program in International Law and Economics. I have directed several international projects, including the USAID Vietnam Digital Trade Activity (2023-2024), the USAID Trade Facilitation Program (2018-2023), and the EU Multilateral Trade Assistance Project (MUTRAP) (2008-2017). From 2004 to 2006, I directed a project for the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to promote Vietnam's accession to the World Trade Organization.
I have also been a member of the "eminent group of experts" appointed by former EU Commissioner Mandelson (2006-2007) to revise the EU system on trade defense measures. I have cooperated with several other international organizations on trade and investment-related issues, including the ITC, World Bank, APEC, UNCTAD, and World Customs Organization.
In addition, I have been a visiting professorial fellow at Georgetown Law School (Washington, D.C.) in 2002 and 2003, and I have taught as a visiting professor at several universities in South America, Europe, and Asia.
