Biography
Daniel Hoffman is a DPhil student in the School of Geography and the Environment working under the supervision of Dr François Lafond and Professor Doyne Farmer. He studies technological evolution and diffusion processes in energy systems, with a particular emphasis on how new advances in electricity storage could help facilitate the green transition. As a member of the Complexity Economics group, he is also interested in the ways individual behaviors collectively give shape to the macroeconomy. He has built agent-based models to help understand the processes through which national production networks develop their characteristic structural fingerprints.
Before coming to Oxford, Daniel worked as a research analyst at Eastern Research Group, modelling the impacts of labor, environmental, and public health regulations in the US. He holds an MSc in Mathematical Modelling and Scientific Computing from the University of Oxford and a BA in Mathematics from Washington University in St Louis.
