Anisha Garg
I am a fourth year PhD student. My research sits at the intersection of urban and public economics. I study how public goods and institutions shape economic and social life in cities, with a particular interest in effects that extend beyond their conventional or intended functions.
I am on the 2026-27 job market.
My supervisors are Sharun Mukand, Debraj Ray, Andreas Stegmann and Robert AkerlofLink opens in a new window.
