Yannick Max Schindler
I am a PhD candidate in the Department of Economics at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) with research interests in macroeconomics, finance, and the economics of longevity. I also hold research fellow positions at London Business School (LBS), the Ellison Institute of Technology in Oxford, and the Center on Longevity at Stanford University. In my work, I combine tools from macro theory with novel empirical methods, including text-as-data and large language models.
Before starting my PhD, I worked as a Senior Research Fellow at Princeton University and as a Research Analyst at the European Central Bank.​
