    Incredibly grateful for the generous endowment, and excited to help support the next generation of behavioral economics research: making economics truly about humans and integrating insights from medicine, neuropsychiatry, cognitive science, biology and more. 1/2

    Incredibly bad news for Economics in Germany. It was such a coup to attract a young superstar to run one of our leading research institutes away from MIT. I can’t believe we are losing him and all the potential he brought to IZA.

    Beben in Bonn: @simon_jaeger verlässt @iza_bonn. Das @briq_institute wird mit dem IZA zwangsfusioniert, denn die Finanzierung wird drastisch gekürzt. Neuer Chef des fusionierten Instituts wird Armin Falk. Weitere Hintergründe @handelsblatt handelsblatt.com/29494570.html?…

    Celebrating Janet Yellen at Berkeley!! So much excitement, happiness, and the truth why she still comes to visit us. (Spoiler: It's mostly red, and in season June-September.)

    Very exciting news for the Paris School of Economics & economics in Europe. If there is a person who can help to further even out the US-tilt in economics and let all the amazing talent and incredible researchers in Paris and Europe shine, it’s Esther. Congrats, Esther and PSE!

    For non-Germans who have been wondering what’s up with German fiscal policy and the Federal Constitutional Court, we wrote a policy brief explaining it all & how to fix it. Here is the English press release: sachverstaendigenrat-wirtschaft.de/en/publication…. Translation of policy brief coming shortly.

    The *scientific council* was dissolved on 9/30/2023. But I don’t think we (Janet Currie, Jim Heckman, and I) would have been involved in merger / leadership transition. Vorstand + Kuratorium? Would have loved help find a better solution. (Still do.)

    Spielräume durch das Finanzpaket dürfen nicht für "konsumptive" Ausgaben, sondern müssen tatsächlich für INVESTITIONEN genutzt werden. Als Negativbeispiele sehe ich die #Mütterrente sowie die Wiedereinführung der #Dieselsubventionierung für Landwirte.
