Sofía Maier

Economist (PhD) | Public Policies & Research

I work at the science-policy interface, both revisiting old questions and pushing new ones. This space involves a dual challenge: translating frontier scientific evidence into policy-relevant insights, while also shaping research agendas with questions grounded in real-world policy needs. I very much enjoy working at both directions of this bridge.

Extensive experience across applied research, consulting and public policy advisory roles in public and private organizations, research centres, universities and international institutions, including the European Commission (JRC), the University of Antwerp, PwC, UNDP, Prime Minister Offices in Spain (Moncloa) and Uruguay (OPP) and LISER (Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research).
