Zhuangchen Wu
PhD in Economics
University of Birmingham
I am an applied economist focusing on macroeconomics, price rigidity, labor economics, inflation now-casting, and big data analytics. My research seeks to understand price-setting behavior and how price-setting affects macroeconomic fundamentals. I am also interested in predicting wage dynamics and inflation fluctuations using high-frequency datasets.
I completed my PhD in Economics at the University of Birmingham in 2025 with a thesis on price-setting behavior in online markets. I am currently on the job market.
