dr. Konstantin Gantert

Bio

I am a Visiting Assistant Professor at the Department of Economics at Tilburg University. I hold a PhD in Economics (2022) from Leipzig University.

My research interests are macroeconomics, especially monetary and fiscal economics. In recent work, I employ search-and-matching theory in quantitative dynamic models to analyze inflation, cyclical productivity, and (optimal) fiscal and monetary policy.

Further, I am developing a new macroeconomics course that tries to bridge the gap between the bachelor and master level by introducing dynamic computational models in an intuitive and applied way.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to know more about my work.
