Full Text of JOE Listing:
NBER's Post-Doctoral Fellowship on Wealth and Income Inequality, supported by the James M. and Cathleen D. Stone Foundation, provides the opportunity for an early-career economist to visit NBER's Cambridge headquarters for a year of intensive research studying disparities in wealth and income, the intergenerational transmission of inequality, the effect of public policies and economic shocks on disparities, and related issues.
Applications from researchers just completing their PhDs, as well as from junior faculty who may be able to combine the fellowship with early career leave, are welcome.
Each fellowship will provide a 12-month stipend of $95,000, reimbursement for health insurance, a travel and research allowance, and an office at the NBER. Fellowships are subject to funding availability.
Applicants must have completed their PhD by June 2024. NBER strongly encourages applications from women, members of groups that have been under-represented in the economics profession, individuals with disabilities, and veterans.
