When it’s all worth it. First time being back in clinics in Sierra Leone since 2019. Social signals ‘bracelets’ for childhood vaccines are now being scaled. Many new learnings talking to nurses and caregivers - things that I couldn’t have anticipated when we did the RCT. ❤️💉

Wonderful to talk to Mosa Moshabela, President of University of Cape Town, here at WEF about antibiotics—a powerful tool that has saved missions of lives—and the growing threat of antibiotic resistance, and economics at UCT.

Because of science: Your mother survived childbirth. You never got polio. You’ve never seen smallpox. Your friend with type 1 diabetes is alive. That infection you had? Antibiotics cured it. We don’t live longer because of luck. We live longer because science works.

Ed's job market paper is a tour de force: 27 RCTs harmonized, fundamental identification challenges solved, and the clearest empirical evidence we have on poverty traps. Brilliant work from one of the most thoughtful, ambitious, and technically gifted young economists!

Spot the difference. A life saving vaccine. #USAID #DevastatingCuts

Congratulations to Mokyr!! I sketched this in 2019, visualizing his theory of how collective praise for innovation motivated wider scientific inquiry 👏 Prestige matters, but.. clearly it’s not a full explanation. We still need to explain why religion was displaced by science.

in grad school, i wrote 17 pages of a 25-page article from ~7pm - 4am. got a 98, was urged to submit it to a conference, got into the conference. at the airport, had a morning bloody mary, missed my flight, talked my way onto another airline, made it in time to present. no AI!

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Pain au chocolat and fresh coffee after transatlantic flight with zero sleep. Europe you are heaven. 🥐❤️

Took a moment in class to remind my undergrads to get their flu and covid jabs. Not my usual role as an econ prof, but right now they have too few trusted voices. And if others are trying to avoid political strife (this ISN'T political!!!), they may not be hearing it elsewhere.

[Reading Group IP week 3] This week, we discussed the 2024 article by R. Juhász, N. Lane, and D. Rodrik "The New Economics of Industrial Policy". They survey the literature and argue for a more nuanced opinion on government interventions 1/6

We have the choice to use the gift of our life to make the world a better place- or not to bother - Jane Goodall Thank you for bothering, Jane.

Still summer and almost October ☀️ #Chicago

@MuelMatthew Or in fall which we have officially entered I believe

@AnneKaring This is the best spot in summer

What makes a city great? Many public outdoor places where you can sit and read #Chicago ❤️☀️

@SumoTail For books less so, I let my mind wander. Yet even for work I love being outside. Typical morning this week 😉🤓

@AnneKaring Usually people like you are taking notes while reading, not that easy while outdoors 😉
