Anders Bredahl Kock

Anders Bredahl Kock is a Professor of Economics at the University of Oxford, affiliated with St Hilda's College and the Aarhus Center for Econometrics (ACE). His research focuses on high-dimensional econometric methods, particularly in instrumental variable regression, panel data models, and statistical learning applications in economics.

Professor Kock's research interests center on econometric theory with emphasis on high-dimensional statistics. His work develops innovative methods for handling large datasets in economic applications, including regularization techniques, hypothesis testing in high dimensions, and treatment effect estimation. He has made significant contributions to the understanding of moment inequalities, panel data models, and forecasting methodology.

His recent publications demonstrate a strong focus on high-dimensional inference problems, with particular attention to instrumental variable methods, treatment allocation, and sequential decision making. His work bridges theoretical econometrics with practical applications in economics, showing how modern statistical techniques can address traditional economic questions with complex data structures.
