Michael Jansson

Michael Jansson is the Edward G. and Nancy S. Jordan Family Professor of Economics at the University of California, Berkeley, in the Department of Economics. His research focuses on econometrics. Jansson joined Berkeley as a research economist in 2000, the same year he earned his PhD from Aarhus University. He became an assistant professor in 2001, an associate professor in 2007, and a professor in 2013. He is a member of the Econometric Society and serves as an Associate Editor of Econometrica and Co-Editor of Econometric Theory and The Econometrics Journal. He received an Econometric Theory Multa Scripsit Award in 2005 and an Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellowship in 2007.

Michael Jansson is a Professor of Economics at UC Berkeley, specializing in econometrics. His research focuses on developing and analyzing econometric methods for nonparametric and semiparametric models, with an emphasis on inference and estimation in regression and time series settings. His work addresses challenges such as heteroscedasticity, unit root testing, and the behavior of estimators under nonstandard asymptotic conditions. Jansson's research includes contributions to density estimation, quantile regression, and inference with many covariates. His publications explore topics such as small bandwidth asymptotics, bootstrap consistency, and the properties of autocorrelation robust tests. His research has implications for understanding the reliability of econometric inference in complex models.
