Leonie Liewehr Forskningsassistent

I have been a research assistant at the Department of Economics at Stockholm University since August 2026, working on research projects in public and labor economics. My research interests center on taxation and inequality, particularly on studying how tax design shapes realized progressivity using large-scale survey and administrative microdata.

While completing my Master’s in Public Economics at Freie Universität Berlin, I worked for two years as a student research assistant at the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) at DIW Berlin. I previously obtained a Bachelor’s in Economics from Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, including an exchange semester at Université Paris Dauphine-PSL.
