Ronan Lyons Email & Phone Number

I am an Associate Professor of Economics at Trinity College Dublin. I research, I teach and I serve my College, discipline and wider society. When it comes to research, I am something of a quantitative archaeologist: with a combination of inspiration and dedication, and a little bit of luck from time to time, we can discover measures of things we had thought unmeasured or unmeasurable, and in so doing better understand the world around us. I'm particularly interested in how local outcomes (such as population or housing prices) are affected by bigger factors (such as trade policy).I started at Trinity in 2013, after completing my doctorate at Balliol College Oxford on Ireland’s 1995-2012 property market bubble and crash. Before this, I worked briefly as a Junior Diplomat for Irish Aid, and then as Economist to Ireland’s National Competitiveness Council and as Managing Consultant at IBM’s Global Centre for Economic Development. Since 2004, I have undertaken economic research for daft.ie, Ireland’s largest property website, most notably its quarterly reports on the sales and rental sectors, which are among Ireland's most prominent economic reports. I have also advised a wide range of public and private organisations, in Ireland and elsewhere, on topics including Ireland's housing market, economic policy and international competitiveness. My personal website is at ronanlyons.com and I tweet as @ronanlyons.

Listed skills include Economics, Economic Research, Public Policy, Macroeconomics, and 18 others.
