Shapiro is a professor of political science, a research affiliate at Argonne National Laboratory's , and has held research fellowships and appointments at the Asiatic Research Institute at Korea University, the , the Industrial Technology Research Institute, and the . He was trained in political science, economics, and public policy at the University of California at San Diego (B.A.) and the University of Southern California (M.A. & Ph.D), and he earned an M.A. in Korean Studies at Yonsei University’s Graduate School of International Studies in Seoul, having won a Woojung Scholarship to study there.

Shapiro’s published and ongoing research lies at the intersection between economics and public policy. More specifically, he attempts to understand how national innovation systems are formed and contribute to sustainable development, how environmental and energy issues are addressed and impacted by relevant policies and political forces, and how communications from politicians, scientists, and the media impact both of these areas. In political science, these concerns fall under the purview of science, technology, and environmental politics (STEP), information technology and politics (ITP), and East Asian political economy.

Shapiro’s work has been published in Energy Policy, The Pacific Review, Environment & Planning: A, American Politics Research, Environmental Communication, Journal of Information Technology and Politics,International Journal of Public Policy, and Scientometrics among others. He teaches courses in innovation policy, energy policy, East Asian political economy, research methods, and the politics of science and technology for the Department of Social Sciences.

Shapiro is on the editorial boards of East Asian Community Review, Journal of Contemporary Eastern Asia, and International Journal of Technology Management and Sustainable Development.
