Current graduate student Zo Andriantomanga had a great summer internship at the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.  He arrived and was immediately asked to present an early version of a dissertation paper.  He then spent the summer improving the paper with the help of the research economists at the Bank.  He presented a far improved version at the end of the summer! In addition to working on his paper, “Are Inflation Movements Global in Nature? Evidence from a Dynamic Factor Model with Stochastic Volatility,” Zo reports loving the barbecue in Kansas City.
