Call for Proposals: The Labor Economics of Frontier AI - Massachusetts Institute of Technology

In partnership with @schmidtsciences.bsky.social, @simonhrjohnson.bsky.social, David Autor and I are seeking funding proposals from researchers conducting innovative field experiments on the labor economics of frontier AI. Expressions of interest due March 31. shapingwork.mit.edu/call-for-pro...

Had a fantastic time at the #Skills2Capabilities meeting last week in Dortmund! 🎉

Grateful for the opportunity to present my work on return to updated VET skills📊

Great discussions, fresh ideas, and lots to think about! 📈🧐

Thank you for the opportunity to present my work with @Zolaiszuola on #skillmatches and #digitalization! It was a great pleasure to meeting all the attendees and involving in the discussions.

Our working paper will be online soon.

Triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) is associated with a higher risk of colorectal adenoma and multiple adenomas in asymptomatic subjects Hypothesis The objective of this study is to evaluate the predictive ability of the TyG index for the presence of adenoma and multiple adenomas in an asymptomatic population. Design A secondary analysis was conducted on a prospective cohort of asymptomatic subjects aged between 50 and 75 who underwent CRC screening. Fasting blood glucose (FBG) and lipid profiles were measured within three months prior colonoscopy. TyG index was estimated as ln [fasting triglycerides (mg/dL) × FBG (mg/dL)/2]. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to assess the association between the TyG index and the risk of adenoma. Its association with multiple adenomas (≥5) and the continuous number of adenomas were assessed by multinomial regression and log-normal linear regression, respectively. Results A total of 1,538 subjects were recruited among which 876 subjects (57%) had at least one adenoma detected. Elevated TyG index was positively associated with the incidence of adenoma (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 1.26, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.04–1.54). Compared with the lowest TyG index (≤ 8) group, the risk of adenoma was the highest among subjects in the highest TyG index (> 10) group (aOR: 3.36, 95% CI: 1.44–7.73). As compared to the non-adenoma group, the TyG index was also positively associated with multiple adenomas (aOR: 1.74, 95% CI: 1.17–2.57), and the estimate was also the highest in the highest TyG group (aOR: 14.49, 95% CI: 3.12–67.20). As for the number of adenomas, the positive association was maintained (Estimates: 1.06, 95% CI: 1.01–1.12) while the number of adenomas increase the most in the highest TyG index group (Estimates: 1.35, 95% CI: 1.10–1.65). Conclusions Elevated TyG index is associated with an increased risk of colorectal adenoma and an increased number of adenomas for asymptomatic subjects aged ≥50. Trial registration This study was registered on clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03597204 and NCT04034953).

My former work in public health was online today: we found that Triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) is associated with a higher risk of colorectal adenoma and multiple adenomas in asymptomatic subjects. Available at #PlosOne

It was a pleasure to be a speaker at the Minerva workshop for the introduction to #R 👾

If you are into academia and study in #maastricht, do follow Minerva! ✅

This is a fantastic association that provides you with series of workshops in R, LaTex, academic writing and so on 📚

Thank you for organizing the course program! I really enjoyed this intensive, busy, but rewarding week. See you in the future courses!

The European Economic Review Summer School was amazing!

I was inspired by the lectures and discussions regarding field experiments; got to present my poster; visited archaeological museum and the palace. Had a good time wondering the strategic thinking of early Minoans. #EER

🚨 New Publication Alert 🚨

Extremely happy to share my paper coauthored with @alvarogutyerrez & Martina Vandebroek. We developed a command to estimate mixed random regret minimization models in Stata.

Finally, someone noticed my command and sent me an email, referring my code as “the most developed on the matter”. Made my day🥳

Hi #EconTwitter ! Very excited to announce that I just joined the Research Centre for Education and the Labour Market (ROA) at Maastricht University as a PhD candidate this fall!

It’s so exciting to join such an amazing research community! 🥳
