Anna Zhu

I am a Senior Lecturer of economics at RMIT University, Australia and lead investigator on an Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage grant looking at the intergenerational impacts of welfare reform.

My research aims to understand how social and economic policies impact on the lives of individuals. I have over 10 years of experience leveraging large datasets and applying statistical tools to disentangle correlation from causation. My current research focuses on issues at the intersection of machine learning, econometrics and social policy.
