In 2021 Pakes received the Global Competition Review's annual award for Prosecution of Collusion and became the American Antitrust Institute's honoree for Outstanding Antitrust Litigation Achievement in Economics. In 2022 he was recipient of Northwestern University's Nemmers Prize in Economics, honored for his "fundamental contributions to the development of the field of empirical industrial organization as it is applied to the study of market power, prices, mergers and productivity.”

　Pakes’s research has focused on developing methods for empirically analyzing market responses to environmental and policy changes. He and his co-authors have applied these tools to the analysis of the auto, electricity, health care, and telecommunications equipment industries. Pakes also developed techniques for analyzing the impacts of privately funded research and development activity, for constructing a more accurate Consumer Price Index, and for analyzing the impact of incentive schemes on the hospital allocations of doctors. Many of Pakes’s methodological contributions have been incorporated into the work of government agencies and private firms.
