James A. Duffy is an Associate Professor of Economics at the University of Oxford and the Andrew Glyn Tutorial Fellow at Corpus Christi College. He joined Corpus in 2016 after a postdoctoral fellowship at Nuffield College, Oxford, and holds dual appointments in the Department of Economics and his college.
His educational background includes:
- PhD in Economics from Yale University (2014)
- Undergraduate studies in Economics and Mathematics at the University of Sydney
Duffy's research centers on econometrics, with emphasis on macroeconometrics and time series analysis. He develops statistical methods for economic models involving nonlinear or highly persistent time series data, common in macroeconomics and finance. His work spans econometric theory, mathematical statistics, cointegration, and structural macroeconomic models, addressing inference challenges in strongly dependent processes.
His 2016-2024 publications in premier journals reveal consistent innovation in time series methodology, particularly in unit root processes, fractional integration, and nonlinear cointegration. Key contributions include Tobit modeling for dynamic systems, robust inference for weakly nonstationary data, and discrete choice estimation techniques, bridging theoretical rigor with empirical applications.
At Oxford, Duffy serves as course convenor for Quantitative Economics and lectures for the MPhil programme on instrumental variables, generalized method of moments, and maximum likelihood estimation. He also provides undergraduate tutorials in Microeconomics and Quantitative Economics at Corpus Christi College, integrating research insights into teaching.
