About me

My name is Megan Haasbroek and I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Janeway Institute at the University of Cambridge. Furthermore, I am a PhD candidate in Economics at Erasmus University Rotterdam and Tinbergen Institute under the supervision of prof. dr. Maarten Bosker and dr. Sacha Kapoor. I hold a Research Master in Macroeconomics and International Economics from the Tinbergen Institute.  

From September 1, I will be joining BI Norwegian Business School in Oslo as a postdoctoral researcher.

I am an applied economist with primary research interests in international trade, economic geography and development economics. I use insights from international trade and micro theory to empirically study the consequences of trade and industrial policy on firms in developing countries.  I am especially interested in how market frictions act as a transmission mechanism for these policies.
