Yuulin An

Welcome!

I’m a PhD candidate in the Department of Economics at Colorado State University. My research focuses on applied microeconomics, with an emphasis on health, the environment, and population aging. Specifically, I study how environmental conditions, health-care systems, and public policies influence the health and well-being of vulnerable populations, including pregnant women, infants, and older adults.

My job market paper studies the effects of airborne lead exposure on birth outcomes using evidence from NASCAR’s and ARCA’s transition from leaded to unleaded gasoline in Texas in 2007. Other projects examine the effect of urban heat island on maternal and infant health, football games and provider decision-making, as well as aging and economic growth.

I am on the 2026-27 job market.

Research Interests: Health Economics, Environmental Economics, Demographic Economics
