Aditya Goenka

Aditya Goenka is a Professor of Economics specializing in the intersection of epidemiology and macroeconomics. His research focuses on modeling economic impacts of infectious diseases, optimal policy design during pandemics, and the dynamics of immunity in public health crises. He leads projects on pandemic preparedness and inequality mitigation in G7 countries, funded by the British Academy and ESRC. Key areas include waning immunity effects, lockdown optimization, and equilibrium manifold analysis in nonconvex economies. Recent work emphasizes computational epidemiology and policy frameworks to balance health and economic outcomes.

• Projects: Leading research on income support schemes during pandemics and integrated epidemiological-economic modeling for epidemic preparedness.
• Research Themes: Economic growth theory, externalities, and steady-state analysis in non-standard economies.

His collaborative work spans global health economics with a focus on SDGs related to good health and well-being, and sustainable economic growth. Outputs include influential papers on smart lockdown strategies and equilibrium manifold visualization techniques.
