Yu Kyung Koh

I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Economics at McGill University. I received my Ph.D. in Economics from Columbia University in 2023. 

My research focuses on applied microeconomics, with particular interests in labor and family economics. I use rich datasets, causal inference methods, and structural modeling to study household decision-making and how it responds to economic conditions and policy. My work examines topics such as consumption and time use within households, labor market shocks, and marriage market dynamics.

I am also interested in applying NLP and large language models to uncover insights from text data. Check out my personal project on job posting analytics here.
