Denisa M. Sologon
Denisa M. Sologon is a Senior Research Scientist at the Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research. Her research programme involves quantitative approaches to welfare economics, in particular income inequality, income distribution dynamics, taxation, social policy and social protection, social mobility, environmental policy and health, with a special focus on the role of social, economic and policy drivers of inequality. Her main interests are in the development and application of policy microsimulation models and the quantitative analysis of large data sources (administrative, survey) to aid the design, evaluation and improvement of public policy.
She has been leading several projects focused on developing a cutting-edge modelling capacity to understand the drivers of distributional outcomes such as inequality, conducted in international partnership and funded by various sources, ranging from the European Commission to National Funding Agencies. The focus of this developmental research has been building a scalable modelling infrastructure for social, economic and environmental policy, with a particular focus on assessing the impact of crises such as the Financial, the COvid-19 pandemic, the Cost of Living and the Climate Crisis on wellbeing. Over time, this modelling framework has generated a rich stream of research with applications across countries, time and policy areas (health, environment, inflation, COVID-19, spatial inequality), published in over 29 academic articles, book chapters and policy briefs. This work has been awarded the 2020 Miriam Herderman O’Brien Prize awarded by the Foundation for Fiscal Studies (Ireland) for the contribution made to understand the distributional implications of the COVID-19 crisis and its policy responses.
Keynote talk: The Transformation of Public Policy Analysis in Times of Crisis – A Microsimulation-Nowcasting Method, based on work co-authored with C. O’Donoghue et al.
