Mauricio 'Pacha' Vargas Sepúlveda

I am currently completing a PhD in Economics at the University of Surrey and my ORCID number is 0000-0003-1017-7574. I am really interested in International Trade. My research focuses on the structural gravity model of trade, with special attention to the computational challenged posed by large dimensional fixed effects and Pseudo-Poisson Maximum Likelihood (PPML) estimator from Tenreyro and Santos-Silva (2006) and the gravity equation derived from Eaton and Kortum (2002) and Melitz (2003).
