Harsh Gupta

I am a Ph.D. student in Economics at Stanford University.   In my research, I apply and develop tools from Industrial Organization and applied microeconomics to study healthcare markets.  My recent work investigates pharmaceutical pricing policy, (lack of) diversity in clinical trials, and the diffusion of novel scientific information. 

From August 2025 to August 2026, I will be a postdoctoral scholar at the Ellison Institute of Technology at Oxford University. I will then join the Department of Economics at the London School of Economics as an Assistant Professor. 

Prior to my doctoral studies, I completed my undergraduate education at the University of California, Los Angeles. I was born and raised in Calcutta, India
