We had a blast at our workshop “On Families, Technology, and the Economy” @NYUAD_SocialSci! Such a great lineup, energy, and discussions. Huge thanks to all the speakers and participants. Stay tuned for future C4Ps, b/c we are planning more conferences on this topic in Abu Dhabi.

@loraulet and I are hiring a 3-year Postdoc to join us at @NYUAD_SocialSci to work on fertility (including through technology), human capital, and employment trajectories in comparative perspective. Econ/demg/soc apply.interfolio.com/174663 @PopAssocAmerica @IUSSP @Econ_jobs_

Since I moved 2 years ago, many ask me about Abu Dhabi and I always say: great + visit and see for yourself. Here is the perfect excuse: 10 days left to submit to the Asia Meetings of the Econometric Society @ NYU Abu Dhabi (Jan 23–26, 2026). econometricsociety.org/regional-activ… @NYUAbuDhabi

@vediense @mfariacastro @pascalpaul Really nice paper!

“Owe your banker £1,000 and you are at his mercy; owe him £1 million and the position is reversed.” Keynes. We evaluate this idea (with @mfariacastro @pascalpaul) using data on bank-firm relationships and incorporating it into a dynamic model. Published!! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@cepr_org @CBScph @CERGE_EI @Unibo @NYUAbuDhabi @UABBarcelona @bse_barcelona Time flies & some projects cook slowly. @GroesFane , Daniela, @AnnaHoustecka , and I started this with no kids, and now we have 8! (2 via IVF). The paper: mother's education (or ability proxies, GPA) shapes IVF success. Then, a dynamic post-IVF-failure model w/ policy insights.
