Jenny Peters

Welcome!

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Economics at the University of Edinburgh, under the supervision of Maia Güell and Ludo Visschers.

My research lies in macroeconomics, focussing on household and family economics.

I study the determinants of gender differences in the labour market and the effect of family-friendly policies on fertility, labour supply, and wages using quantitative models.

During my PhD, I visited Universidad Carlos III de Madrid in 2024 and CUNEF Universidad in 2025.

I am on the academic job market in 2026/2027.

Education

Prior to beginning my Ph.D. in Economics at The University of Edinburgh I received an M.Sc. in Economics at The University of St Andrews, for which I received the ECB Scholarship for Women.
