Congrats Davide - wishing you efficient referee report turnarounds, like the 10-min one you produced in Alicante :)

Consistent with what some sociologists have been telling - effects on school choice especially present for 1st generation students and underrepresented minorities

Reading a speech from Isabel Schnabel, I discovered the #ECB has a youtube channel, Expresso Economics. Goal is to reach a broader public. Videos-high quality-published 2 months ago total... 500 views. Says a lot.

The misinformation discourse is a distraction Media fragmentation and the erosion of shared sources of truth are bigger threats

Understanding causality vs. correlation is genuinely hard especially on complex topics like inflation. Our research finds that 60% of Americans think high interest rates cause high inflation & support rate cuts to fight it. But high rates usually respond to inflation,not cause it

Weird, but this is what Le Monde is reporting

Consumer inflation expectations: Daily dynamics We use high frequency identification methods to study the response of consumer inflation expectations to many different types of events using data fro…

Today we (are lucky to) have Matteo Ciccarelli from the ECB in our Macro seminar in Alicante ! ☀️ (adding to this year’s great lineup of speakers)

Staggering stats -and great to see research flourishing in this area. > than 50% of academics said to come from the 20% richest families, 5% from the poorest 20%.

Despite a large increase in the share of lower-income students in the college-going population, their representation at elite private or public colleges has remained at similarly low levels throughout the last century, from Abramitzky, Kowalski, Pérez, and Price https://www.nber.org/papers/w33164

Hola Santiago. Podrias por favor anadir @ivanpaya-econ.bsky.social (y yo si está abierto a economistas que trabajan en España :) )

Want to give a good scientific talk? TELL A GOOD STORY. don’t show the audience every result, don’t give us one slide on every paper you’ve ever published. If I want to read your resume, I will. Teach me something, tell me a story.
