Anna Birgitta Thoresson
Assistant Professor
I’m an assistant professor in Reykjavik University’s Department of Business and Economics. My research interests are in labour economics and applied microeconomics, and I’m currently studying why pay differs across workers and firms, as well as gender differences in the labour market. I teach labour economics and econometrics in our undergraduate programme, with an emphasis on causal research design. I hold a PhD in Economics from Uppsala University. In addition, I am affiliated with the Institute for Evaluation of Labour Market and Education Policy (IFAU), Uppsala Center for Labor Studies (UCLS), RFBerlin and the Pension Research Institute of Iceland (PRICE).
