Pia Andres

Pia is a postdoctoral researcher at the Centre for Economic Performance at the London School of Economics and is visiting the Growth Lab until the end of October 2024. Her research focuses on the technological shift towards a low carbon and increasingly digital economy.

She has recently completed her PhD in Environmental Economics at LSE. Before joining the Centre for Economic Performance, she was a researcher at the Oxford Martin Programme on the Future of Work at the University of Oxford.

Pia’s previous and ongoing research studies how the global transition to a low carbon economy affects, and is affected by, countries’ interactions in global trade; the relationship between progress in AI and green energy; and the role of policy in shaping the trajectory of AI innovation, among other related topics. During her time at the Growth Lab, she will explore the application of network approaches to technological change, and its relationship with economic development.
