Senior🎓
Top SchoolPearl Li is a postdoctoral fellow at the Cowles Foundation (Yale) specializing in industrial organization and urban economics, with 11 years of experience bridging academic research and policy. Her work focuses on congestion pricing, affordable housing, and auction design, emphasizing the distributional effects of urban policies and their implications for transportation and housing market design. She holds a PhD from Stanford and a strong quantitative background (MA and BA in Mathematics and Economics from Penn), and has applied those skills at the FTC and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York where she contributed to DSGE modeling and developed the DSGE.jl Julia package. Pearl combines rigorous theoretical and empirical methods with practical policy experience in the New York City metro area, making her research directly relevant to regulators and urban planners. An economist by training and a pragmatic problem-solver by practice, she often translates complex model insights into actionable policy recommendations.
