Ema Nakayama

Ema Nakayama will be working with Professor Michael Greenstone. Currently, Nakayama is supporting Greenstone on a proposal for climate compensation that is based on calculating local climate damages and encouraging emission reductions. For another project, Nakayama is working on analysis for an RCT (randomized control trial) that implemented the first particulate-matter emissions market trading scheme covering industrial plants in Surat, India. Nakayama’s own research interests lie broadly in the fields of public economics, public policy, and microeconomic theory. In her free time, Nakayama enjoys running, reading, and Chicago’s many great bakeries.
