Biosketch

Dr. Avishek Bhandari is an Assistant Professor of Economics at the Indian Institute of Technology Bhubaneswar.

His research focuses on macroeconomics and macro-financial networks, examining how economic shocks propagate across global financial markets through network linkages. He aims in integrating network theory with economic models to analyze mechanisms and linkages in the global economy. His methodological approach integrates network analysis, information theory, and multi-scale analysis with traditional economic methods to study shock transmission, enhance understanding of systemic risk, and assess market efficiency within global macroeconomic networks, emphasizing macroeconomic dynamics and interdependencies. 

His current platform, Econstellar (development phase), integrates real-time macroeconomic monitoring with interactive network visualization, demonstrating how information dynamics and temporal dependencies reveal structural patterns across financial networks during various market conditions.
