Lennart Hoogerheide is an Associate Professor at the Department of Econometrics, School of Business and Economics, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, and a Research Fellow at the Tinbergen Institute. He earned his PhD from Erasmus University Rotterdam in 2006. His research focuses on Bayesian econometrics, Monte Carlo integration methods, and computational statistics, with applications in financial econometrics and instrumental variable models.
Hoogerheide has developed influential R packages like MitISEM and AdMit for Bayesian analysis and importance sampling. He has received awards including the 'Best Senior Lecturer' (2015-2016) and 'Lecturer of the Year' (2009-2010). His work explores complex posterior distributions, non-elliptical contours, and robust inference techniques in econometric models.
His recent research includes time-varying factor models, Bayesian mode inference for discrete distributions, and adaptive mixture methods. He has been awarded the VENI grant (NWO, 2009) and is recognized for contributions to computational Bayesian methods in economics and finance.
