Paul Johnson, Director of the Institute for Fiscal Studies, has become a Visiting Professor at the UCL Policy Lab.
The Policy Lab is a joint initiative between UCL's Department of Economics and Political Science, and aims to support 'decision-making and public debate through innovative and collaberative research'.
Johnson said that he was “delighted and honoured" by the announcement, and commented that "this is a hugely valuable and important initiative to bring more of the great work that goes on across UCL into the policy debate as well as to bring more policymakers into UCL."
"I look forward to working with all those involved and to making sure that IFS plays a central role in the Lab”.
