Professor Adam I. Muchmore focuses his research on the tradeoffs between alternative approaches to government regulation. He is particularly interested in the interaction between government regulation and private-law remedies and the consequences of domestic regulatory programs for cross-border activity. His substantive emphasis is on food and drug law and the regulation of international business.
