`CHRISTINE MEYER, Ph.D.
`Senior Vice President
`
`
`
`Dr. Meyer conducts economic research and analysis in the areas of intellectual property
`economics, antitrust, commercial damages, business valuation, and labor economics. She has
`written expert reports and testified in deposition and at trial about her economic analysis.
`
`In the areas of intellectual property, commercial damages, and business valuation, Dr. Meyer has
`written expert reports and testified on economic damages. She has analyzed damages arising
`from patent and copyright infringement, the misappropriation of trade secrets, and breaches of
`contract. She has worked on analysis of class certification issues and has analyzed commercial
`success and injunction issues in patent cases. She has also analyzed the value of several patents,
`licenses, and potential business acquisitions.
`
`In antitrust, Dr. Meyer has evaluated the competitive effects of mergers and acquisitions and
`analyzed antitrust claims and damages in cases involving alleged resale price maintenance,
`monopolization and price discrimination. Dr. Meyer has analyzed competition in a wide range of
`industries, including agricultural chemicals, athletic apparel, automotive parts, beer, bread,
`chemicals, computer software, hospitals, kitchen appliances, linen rental, mobile computing,
`movie theaters, pharmaceuticals, satellite ground equipment, smokeless tobacco, and yogurt. Dr.
`Meyer has incorporated various econometric techniques in her antitrust work to include analysis
`of bidding data, demand modeling, and the design and analysis of discrete choice consumer
`surveys. Dr. Meyer has written expert reports and testified about her analysis and has presented
`her analysis to the Federal Trade Commission and Department of Justice. In 2009, she was
`featured as one of Global Competition Review's Women in Antitrust.
`
`In labor economics, Dr. Meyer has conducted academic research and published several papers in
`peer-reviewed journals dealing with issues including work/family benefits, women’s work, and
`childbearing decisions. She has testified on damages in an alleged wrongful termination matter.
`She has also worked on behalf of numerous families of victims of the September 11 terrorist
`attacks to analyze and testify about the economic losses incurred by families in connection with
`their claims to the Federal Victim's Compensation Fund.
