Xufeng Liu

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Agricultural, Environmental, and Development Economics at The Ohio State University. My research is in development and health economics, with fieldwork and primary data collection in sub-Saharan Africa.

My job market paper studies how the removal of Nigeria's fuel subsidy in May 2023 reshaped early-life contact with the health system — antenatal care, birth outcomes, and childhood vaccination — using identification strategies matched to each domain.

I am advised by Anne Fitzpatrick.
