Elizaveta Brover

Welcome to my website!

My name is Elizaveta Brover (Liza). I am currently a first year PhD student in the Yale Economics department. Previously, I was an undergraduate at the University of Pennsylvania, where I studied Mathematical Economics.

My research interests are in the intersection of econometrics and history. Right now, I am interested in measurement error, non-linear time series, fixed effect models, the Soviet education system, economics of culture, and the modeling of crises in Russian and United States history.

Bio

My parents immigrated to the United States from Moscow, Russia, four years before I was born.

I was born and raised in California but now call Rockville, Maryland my home. 

My hobbies include listening to rap music, lifting, playing guitar, and journalling. 

My favorite book is The Gadfly by Ethel Voynich.
