Dennis J.J. Gottschlich

About me

My name is Dennis Gottschlich and I am a doctoral researcher in Economics at the Düsseldorf Institute for Competition Economics (DICE).

My broad research interests include labor economics, the future of work, and unintended side-effects of competition on workers. I am an applied empirical microeconomist focusing on mental health, social mobility, and social capital. Currently, I study economic determinants of mental illnesses, and more generally, psychological distress. I aim to deepen our knowledge in this field to improve policies and highlight the importance of this underresearched topic of mental health. 

My current research focuses on the nexus between austerity measures and depressions.
