Research Team

Previous full-time members of the team have gone on to top PhD programs in health policy (3 at Harvard), economics or business economics or policy economics (Berkeley, Chicago Booth, 2 at Harvard, 3 at Michigan), and computer science (Carnegie Mellon), many with prestigious national fellowships (Hertz, 3 with NSF).

After completing their PhDs, former members of the team have accepted faculty positions at Boston University, MIT, UCLA, and the University of Sydney.

I am currently looking to hire several full-time research assistants to start immediately or between May and July 2025.
