What I do

Caleb Petry is a Model Development Research Associate at the Pardee Center for International Futures. He primarily works to build extensions to, improve, and apply the International Futures model - with a primary focus on bilateral interactions. Additionally, he conducts research for the Diplometrics Program and other projects as needed.

Since initially joining Pardee as a Research Assistant in 2015, he has also contributed to research at Pardee on such issue areas as severe acute malnutrition (SAM), military reach, and threat - among others.

His personal research interests include better understanding the role of relevancy in international conflict and the linkages between economic development and conflict.
