Warren Sanderson

Warren Sanderson rejoined IIASA in June 2008 as an Institute Scholar. He is also a Professor of Economics and Professor of History at Stony Brook University in New York State, USA. In addition, he is co-chair of the Department of Economics there. He holds a PhD in economics from Stanford University.

Professor Sanderson first came to IIASA in 1980 and worked in the World Population Program. Since that time he has been a recurrent visitor to that Program. His research interests are in population-economic interactions. He has published in a variety of journals, including Nature, Science, Population and Development Review, Demography, Population Studies, and Population Index.

His recent research includes probabilistic population forecasting, measuring aging in ways that take life expectancy change into account, and the effects of education and other demographic changes on economic growth.
