Author Profile
Early Academic Pursuits
Ms. Anastasia Sherubneva's journey in economics began with her graduation with honors from Novosibirsk State University in 2022, where she studied economics, mathematical methods, and programming. Her interest in economics as a science led her to start working at a research institute (IEIE SB RAS) in Novosibirsk in 2020. This foundational period established her passion for economic research and set the stage for her future academic endeavors.
Professional Endeavors
After completing her bachelor's degree, Anastasia pursued a Master's program in Economic Research at the Higher School of Economics (HSE) in Moscow. She enrolled in the United Track Master's-PhD program with a scholarship, further solidifying her academic trajectory. Currently, she serves as a Research Assistant in the Laboratory for Spatial Econometric Modeling of Socio-Economic Processes in Russia at HSE. Her role involves significant research activities, including participation in the HSE Research and Study Group focused on the impact of macroeconomic shocks on socio-economic processes in Russia.
Contributions and Research Focus
Anastasia's research primarily revolves around regional and spatial economics. She explores the effects of location on economic actors, such as the impact of borders on border regions' economies, the influence of rapid economic growth in one region on neighboring areas, and agglomeration effects on company efficiency. Her work involves analyzing Russian data at various levels, from regional to micro (enterprise) levels. Anastasia's research has provided insights into spatial effects in Russia's unique geographical context, such as the significant market potential impact in low-density areas and the negative agglomeration effects in large megacities.
Accolades and Recognition
Throughout her career, Anastasia has achieved notable recognition in her field. She has presented her research at over 15 scientific conferences and seminars, including the prestigious Congress of the European Regional Science Association in Spain in 2023. Additionally, she has co-authored four articles in Scopus/RSCI journals and contributed a chapter to a monograph. Her independent article has been accepted for publication in "Regional Science: Policy & Practice," a Q2 Scopus journal.
Impact and Influence
Anastasia's work has had a substantial impact on the understanding of spatial and regional economics in Russia. Her research findings have highlighted critical aspects of economic interactions in regions with low population density, demonstrating the significant influence of market potential on neighboring territories. Additionally, her identification of negative agglomeration effects in major Russian cities has provided valuable insights for policymakers and business operators.
Legacy and Future Contributions
Anastasia's contributions to the field of spatial economics are poised to leave a lasting legacy. Her ongoing research promises to further unravel the complexities of regional economic dynamics in Russia and beyond. With a strong foundation in both academic and practical aspects of economics, Anastasia is well-positioned to continue making significant contributions to the field. Her future work is expected to expand our understanding of spatial effects and inform strategies for regional development and economic policy.
