@disml_scientist @KhoaVuUmn Well done :)

Some pretty big things happening in the first 3 months of 2026... First: my JMP was accepted for publication at Experimental Economics! Let's not get too specific on how long that has taken... drive.google.com/file/d/1IOe_cc…

The EEA MinE Committee is launching a new mentoring programme for PhD students and ECRs who identify as a minority in economics. We are currently inviting MENTORS who are keen and able to mentor junior colleagues: eeassoc.org/mentor-survey Deadline: Monday, March 23, 2026.

Wonderful visiting @UofEBusiness @UniofExeter & giving a seminar @ Econ Dept yesterday! I talked abt gender-based violence & judge responses w/ Xiqian Cai, Zhengquan Cheng & @EmilyNix100. Huge thanks to Dario, Cecilia & @boonhankoh for arrangement! Amazing campus & researchers!

@isaeminhafalir @erkutozbay Congratulations!

I am thrilled to share that my project with @erkutozbay "Australia's Path to Net Zero: Capitalising on Carbon Markets" is one of the Discovery Projects funded this round.

@JanasMoritz Congrats Janas!!!!!

Happy to be in beautiful Sweden and excited to start my new position here!

The world is falling apart. Martial law declared in S Korea, overleaf is down, my home wifi is down.

The workshop on Discrimination & Diversity will be again online in June 2025. Look out for the submission deadline! sites.google.com/view/dnd-works…. Thanks for the organisers @boonhankoh creating this new initiative during COVID when online became part of the "normal". #DEI

🚀 I am on the #EconJobMarket! 📜 In my JMP, I study how choosing a product shapes beliefs about product qualities, using a novel experimental design. 🌐 To read about this project or my work on Choice-induced Sticky Learning and more, visit: sites.google.com/view/gergelyha…

Our 5th iteration of the Discrimination and Diversity workshop is taking place in June next year. Deadline for paper submissions: 17 March. This year, we are looking to feature talks on LGBTQ+ individuals, gender, AI, migration, and environment.

Just confirming: it is not ok (or cool) in our profession to ignore papers that relate clearly to ours, even if they are working papers. There is some weird trend going on lately…

@JanasMoritz studies topics related to Organizational Economics using theory-based experiments. Mortiz's JMP pioneers a method to elicit individual thresholds for interdependent behavior and uses it to explain support for affirmative action in the US. moritzjanas.com

@NishthaChatters works in development, labor, and political economy. Nishtha's JMP uses theory and field experiments to study begging. She finds donors give more to beggars seen as willing to work but underestimate the beggars' actual preferences for work. sharmanishtha.com

@Lina_loz studies labor market disparities using lab and online experiments. Lina's JMP shows how gender differences in workers' attribution of credit for their team's success/failure contribute to hiring disparities, particularly when gender is unknown. sites.google.com/view/linamaria…

I'm very proud of our three job market candidates this year. They all have terrific JMPs and a very promising pipeline. If your department is looking for talented economists using experimental methods, you should take a good look at them! @Lina_loz @NishthaChatters @JanasMoritz

Excited to announce that I'm on the academic job market for 2024-2025! Looking forward to having the opportunity to talk about my JMP on 'Repugnant Markets' (first image), as well as my other research projects. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you want to know more!
