Hanno Hilbig

I am a PhD student in the Government department at Harvard. My research focuses on inequality, representation and migration. In most of my research, I rely on causal inference in observational settings. I am also a research fellow in the Multidisciplinary Program in Inequality and Social Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School. In the spring semester of 2020, I am also a visiting researcher at the Institutions and Political Inequality Group at WZB Berlin.
