Anusha Fraikin

I am a doctoral student in the Social Policy stream, working under the supervision of Professor Kenneth Nelson and Dr Dirk Witteveen. I am a department-funded Barnett Scholar.

My research examines the mechanisms that link precarious employment and health, and investigates how social policy may alter these mechanisms. I work with cross-national data and use quantitative methods to investigate these questions.

I hold a BA in Political Science (TU Darmstadt, Germany) and a MSc in International Social and Public Policy (Research) (London School of Economics and Political Science, UK). Before joining the department I worked as a consultant in Vienna, Austria.
