Research on the macroeconomy based on microdata
We pursue research on a broad set of issues relevant to macroeconomic policymaking, including productivity, income and consumption inequality, the drivers of inflation, and the roles of fiscal and monetary policy. Our approach incorporates cutting-edge theoretical frameworks and empirical analyses using micro-level data.
