Eugen Dimant of MBDS honored with German business magazine’s “Top 40 unter 40”

Dr. Eugen Dimant has been named to the 2025 “Top 40 unter 40” list of the German business magazine Capital. The annual ranking highlights 40 leaders under the age of 40 from business, politics, public administration, science, and civil society who are already having significant impact and are expected to shape Germany’s future. It is one of Germany’s most visible early-career recognitions, and selection signals that the recipients’ work is seen as nationally influential and socially relevant beyond academia.

Dimant is an Associate Professor of Practice in Behavioral and Decision Sciences at the University of Pennsylvania and a fellow of Penn’s Center for Social Norms and Behavioral Dynamics. His research uses experimental and applied methods to study social norms, ethical behavior, and political polarization, with a focus on how institutions and policies can reduce corruption, crime, and other harmful behaviors.
