Research

I'm interested in evaluation and development of the public sector with topics cutting across welfare areas, such as the social, health, education and labour market areas, as well as public administration and residential sorting.

​

The research is based on applied econometrics with focus on identification strategies, effect measurement, programme evaluation and structural dynamic programming combined with economic theory. Furthermore, the research generally make use of extensive administrative panel data registries.
