Treatment Effect Heterogeneity in Regression Discontinuity Designs Empirical studies using Regression Discontinuity (RD) designs often explore heterogeneous treatment effects based on pretreatment covariates, even though no formal statistical methods exist for such a...

🧵New survey paper: "Inference with Few Treated Units"
Luis Alvarez, Bruno Ferman and Kaspar Wüthrich

Tired of referees saying your standard errors are wrong?

This survey will help you understand if you really have a problem — and, if so, how to fix it!

A very interesting interview to one of the greatest statisticians of recent times - Marc Hallin. Highly recommended!

Very happy to see time series in Econometrica 😃

A very cool Econometrics Journal editorial by @jaapabbring.bsky.social, @victorchernozhukov.bsky.social & Fernandez-Val on Wright's 1928 contribution to causal inference and IV.

Very interesting stuff!

I've just been appointed for another term as Associate Editor of the @JEconometrics.

Proud to contribute to the premier journal for econometricians and to be part of its amazing editorial board!

It was very good. Much better than at the average econ top journal. Four reports plus AE, one main revision, then minor adjustments. I had two experiences there, both very similar. Not clubby. I would seriously consider it!

Excellent news today - our paper on bootstrap inference with asymptotically biased estimators, joint with Silvia Goncalves, Morten Nielsen & Edoardo Zanelli, has been accepted by the 𝑱𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑨𝒎𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒍 𝑨𝒔𝒔𝒐𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏! ⭐⭐⭐

Today my macroeconometrics lecture took place in the anatomy department of @Unibo. It gave me a friendly reminder that ‘In the long run we are all dead.’ 😅

Hi #EconSky!

Looking for (teaching) resources on intermediate macroeconomics?

François Geerolf (UCLA) offers a rich set of lecture notes, slides, and handouts.

Topics include growth, business cycles, unemployment, inflation, and open-economy macro issues.

Check it out! fgeerolf.com/econ102/

Hi #EconSky!

Working with causal inference, perhaps using RDDs?

This paper reveals significant multiple testing issues in empirical analyses from top-five econ journals.

They highlight pitfalls and possible solution.

Cool #econometrics stuff to read - check it out!

How many econometricians out here?

Financial markets, like probability measures, converge weakly. 🫣
