aau/MüllerWhen will inflation fall and when will economic growth accelerate? Luis Gruber, an early career researcher in Gregor Kastner’s research team at the Department of Statistics, is developing new statistical methods to help predict socially relevant topics such as economic development. It is important to note that statistics are not a crystal ball.
