Jan Schulz-Gebhard 

née Schulz


I am a PostDoc at the Chair of International Economics of University of Bamberg, where I recently completed my PhD titled "Essays on Aggregation With Heterogeneous and Interacting Agents" under the supervision of Professor Mishael Milaković, PhD. Prior to that, I was a member of the Bamberg Doctoral Research Group on Behavioral Macroeconomics (2018 - 2020) and got my Master's degree in European Economic Studies (EES) also at the University of Bamberg.

The pre-analytic vision of my work conceputalises economies as complex adaptive systems. Methodologically, I am interested in all things distribution and networks. Contentwise, my work focuses on issues of economic inequality, granular economies and distributional regularities. 

Together with Daniel Mayerhoffer, I was awarded the Herbert Simon Prize by the European Association for Evolutionary Political Economy and together with Anna Gebhard and Daniel Mayerhoffer, I received the Egon Matzner Prize by the Department for Public Finance and Infrastructure Policy of TU Vienna.

Last year, I was co-organizing a satellite workshop to NetSci 2023 in Vienna titled "From Micro to Macro Via Network Interaction". I am also co-editing a special issue in the Review of Evolutionary Political Economy titled "Pluralist Economics in an Era of Polycrisis: Young Scholars’ Voices". 

I am a member of the European Association for Evolutionary Political Economy (EAEPE), the Post-Keynesian Economics Society (PKES), the German Network for Pluralism in Economics (Netzwerk Plurale Ökonomik) and co-founded the Bamberg Group for Pluralism in Economics (Plurale Ökonomik Bamberg) in 2015.
