he Macrofinance Lab (macrofinance.princeton.edu) is dedicated to the study of the connections between finance and the macroeconomy. The lab brings together faculty, postdoctoral researchers and graduate students to collaborate on empirical macrofinance projects. It helps doctoral students develop their ideas from the conceptual stage to a publishable product by facilitating access to data sources and funding summer research, data acquisition, conference travel and undergraduate research assistants.
affiliated faculty, researchers and students
In 2020, the National Science Foundation awarded a three-year research grant to Ernest Liu, Atif Mian and Karsten Müller to support the Lab’s ongoing work. The project will develop an open-source textbook and data-sharing platform to build a community of researchers and advance our understanding of issues like credit supply and indebtedness, distributional outcomes and growth, all through the lens of empirical macrofinance.
POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHERS
Assistant professors Natalie Cox and Arlene Wong were awarded a one-year Princeton University research grant to support a study on the economic implications and costs of the Covid-19 pandemic.
