معرفی
Florian Gunsilius is an Associate Professor in the Department of Economics at Emory University. His research focuses on nonparametric econometric methods, optimal transport theory, and causal inference. He earned a PhD in Economics from Brown University (2019), an MA in Economics (2014), and a BSc/MPE in Economics from the Frankfurt School of Finance and Management (2012). His work bridges theoretical econometrics and applied policy analysis, particularly in areas requiring innovative statistical techniques.
Dr. Gunsilius's research interests include statistical identification, estimation of causal effects, and applications of optimal transport to economics. He has developed methods for analyzing treatment effects, demand systems, and policy impacts using advanced mathematical frameworks like free discontinuity regression and Wasserstein projections.
His recent publications (2021–2025) emphasize causal inference in observational data, synthetic control methods, and nonlinear econometric modeling. Notable contributions include distributional synthetic controls for policy evaluation and free discontinuity regression for structural estimation. He maintains an active research agenda in nonparametric approaches to economic modeling.
