We're looking for two types of predoctoral fellows:

The fellow will be actively involved in all stages of research, including brainstorming, proofreading, literature reviews, data search and curation, data analysis, programming. You aspire to do a PhD in economics / finance later.

For the style of research involved in the "Machine learning" track, see the paper "Asset Embeddings \_id= " at \_id= The research is joint with Ralph Koijen, Robert Richmond and Moto Yogo from U.

Chicago, NYU and Princeton. For the "Macro-finance-behavioral", see recent papers at

The fellow will also be an active participant in the Harvard University research community.

The fellowship includes opportunities to develop a research agenda in related topics, to attend seminars, and to take some courses.

The position is the ideal training ground for a recent graduate who is interested in pursuing a PhD in Economics.

Compensation is competitive, typically over USD 55,000/year.

Alumni of this RA-ship have been admitted to top PhD program, such at Harvard, MIT , Princeton, Stanford.
