Paula Roth

Research Institute of Industrial Economics

I am a Post-doc at the Research Institute for Industrial Economics (IFN). I received my Ph.D. in Economics from Uppsala University in May 2020.

I am a microeconomist interested in both theory and applied work. My main research area is income inequality and its effects on the economic choices of households. My current work concerns household debt and consumption. Another area of interest is entrepreneurship and understanding what policies and institutions best promote innovation.
