Brian Weller

I am a third year graduate student in the Joint Ph.D. Program in Financial Economics at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and Department of Economics.

My primary research interests are empirical asset pricing and financial intermediation, particularly in high-frequency settings. I also study networks and financial market stability.

I graduated from Harvard College in 2009 with an A.B. in Applied Math with a Secondary Field in Economics. I expect to graduate in 2014.

My resume is available here.
