I am a PostDoctoral Research Fellow at WZB, part of the Berlin School of Economics.

I also hold a part-time position at Department of Economics at Copenhagen Business School and the DFF-funded project 'Parents' Specialization: Causes and Consequences'.


I'm an applied micro economist, and my research is primarily concerned with the mechanisms behind and implications of gender differences in labor market outcomes.

Please reach out if you want to talk about mine or your research!
You can contact me on anne.sophie.lassen@wzb.eu or follow me on Twitter or Bluesky @AnSoLassen. My Google Scholar profile is here.
