I am Thomas Bourany, a Postdoctoral Research Scholar at the Department of Economics at Columbia University. I completed my PhD in Economics at the University of Chicago in 2025. I specialize in macroeconomics, quantitative climate economics, and international trade. I am also interested in issues related to fiscal and monetary policies over the business cycles, as well as mathematical and computational methods for economics.
In the Fall 2025, I am organizing a reading group on Industrial Policy at Columbia, with Lucía Casal and Filip Milosavljević (syllabus here). Feel free to join!
