About 3 years ago, after my talk in a virtual seminar, @Econ_Sandy emailed me with kind words and really helpful feedback on the paper. We had not met prior to that. The email meant the world to me as a Jr, and ultimately led to a better paper. 💕

Was honored to attend the amazing @WiEMecon conference hosted by @BeckerFriedman this weekend and give some advice for more junior academics. Below I share my top 10, which benefited from assistance from many of my very wise friends!

Another super cool paper form @WiEMecon - presented by @vini_singh_:
"How Power Shapes Behavior: Evidence from Physicians" by Manasvini Singh & Stephen Schwab
Amazing health data from the military! And I love the "results as a limerick" summaries of all of Vini's WPs.

Thank you @WiEMecon for the opportunity to get to present on a topic that is particularly relevant to many TT female profs and their partners! Paper draft here, thoughts welcome - dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.4428…
Track A continues with @ambarlaforgia (@BerkeleyHaas) presenting work with @julia_bodner showing that chain-acquired fertility clinics increase IVF volume and live birth rates. Effects likely driven by resource and knowledge transfers. Carola Frydman (@KelloggSchool) to discuss.

Super interesting paper that had the whole Women in Empirical Micro conference buzzing yesterday.

I don’t study tariffs but this paper seemed super important. First question from the audience: “So are all previous papers wrong?”😳 Discussant said she went through all stages of grief while coming to terms w the implications.
“Missing Tariffs, False Imputation, and the Trade Elasticity” - no draft online yet but keep an eye out!
Back from the break: @FeodoraTeti (@LMU_Muenchen) presenting new estimates of trade responses to trade tariffs, overcoming several measurement and estimation challenges. @m_bombardini (@BerkeleyHaas) will discuss.
