Biró Péter matematikusként végzett a Budapesti Műszaki és Gazdaságtudományi Egyetemen (2003), majd ugyanitt lett a matematika és számítástudományok doktora (2007). Ezzel egyidejűleg közgazdaságtant tanult a Budapesti Corvinus Egyetemen, ahol az EU szakirányt végezte el (2007). Kutatási területe a kooperatív játékelmélet, algoritmikus mechanizmus-tervezés, és ezeken belül is a párosítások elmélete. 2007-től három és fél éven keresztül volt a University of Glasgow kutatója, majd 2010 októberében csatlakozott a Közgazdaságtudományi Intézet játékelmélet kutatócsoportjához. Az elméleti kutatások mellett gyakorlati alkalmazásokban is közreműködött, így például az Egyesült Királyság vesecsere-programjában, a skóciai rezidensek allokációs programjában, vagy a magyar felsőoktatási felvételi rendszer pontszámítási eljárásában.

Péter Biró graduated as a mathematician from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (2003) and received his PhD in mathematics and computer science from the same university (2007). At the same time, he studied economics at the Corvinus University of Budapest, where he graduated in 2007 with a degree in EU studies. His research interests are in algorithmic mechanism design, cooperative game theory, including the theory and practical applications of preference-based pairings. He was a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Glasgow for three and a half years from 2007, and joined the Game Theory Momentum research group at the Institute of Economics in October 2010. In 2014, he spent a year as a visiting professor at Stanford, at the invitation of Al Roth. On 1 July 2016 , with the support of the MTA Momentum Programme , he was able to establish the Mechanism Design research group, which he has been leading ever since. In addition to theoretical research, he has also been involved in practical applications, such as the UK kidney exchange programme, the Scottish Resident Allocation Programme, the Hungarian higher education admissions scoring system, the renewal of an Estonian kindergarten allocation programme, and the allocation of students to firms under the CEMS programme.
