Clem Aeppli is a PhD student in Sociology. He studies how the organization of work affects inequality and instability. His projects deal with racial segregation by workplace, payroll instability at subcontractors, industrialization in the 1910s, and between-group variance decompositions. He works with American and French administrative data — both contemporary and historical — and is interested in the methods we use to understand social and economic life.

Before starting graduate school, Clem worked as a pre-doctoral research assistant at MIT’s Sloan School of Management. He received a BSc in Sociology and in Mathematics from Brown University in 2018 and is currently a Stone Inequality Scholar.
