Welcome! My name is Saloni Bhogale, and I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Political Science specializing in comparative politics and political methodology, and have completed an M.S. in Statistics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. My work leverages methods from causal inference, spatio-temporal models and machine learning to study political institutions and political economy in the developing world.

My research has been supported by the National Science Foundation’s Law and Science Dissertation Grant, APSA’s Early Career Experimental Fellowship; and the Scott Kloeck-Jenson Fellowship, the Elections Research Center and the Institute for Regional and International Studies at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. I am affiliated with UW-Madison’s Center for High Throughput Computing and frequently leverage scientific computing to improve performance of tasks in the research pipeline.
