Larry Liu is a CEPAR Research Fellow at the Crawford School of Public Policy at ANU. He is also a Research Fellow at the Centre for Applied Macroeconomic Analysis (CAMA) at ANU. He joined CEPAR in December 2017 after working as a Research Fellow at CAMA since 2015. He completed his PhD in Economics at ANU in 2015, and received his MA in Economics and BS in Computer Science both from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China.

He is currently working on modelling global demographic change. Particularly, he is introducing global demographic features into the G-Cubed model of the global economy, and analysing macroeconomic adjustments at the global, regional, and national levels, more particularly in Australia and China. He is also working on small general equilibrium models linking demographic change to endogenous economic growth, monetary policy, and climate policy. More broadly, his research interests are macroeconomics, public economics and international economics, and dynamic general equilibrium modelling. He teaches International Macroeconomics for graduate students at ANU.
