Juan C. Yamin

Welcome! I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Economics at Brown University.

My research lies at the intersection of applied econometrics and statistical decision theory. I aim to develop methods that help researchers and policymakers make better use of data for real-world decisions. My current work includes projects on poverty targeting under imperfect information, experimental design for two-wave experiments, and empirical Bayes methods for two-way effects models. Before starting the Ph.D., I worked on topics related to the political economy of development.

This website includes my CV, current research, and other materials related to my work.
