Wikipedia rabbit holes: we have all been there. According to researchers at the University of Pennsylvania, there is a logic behind where you end up. A recent study shows 3 types of Wikipedia readers, each guided by their own "knowledge network" and style of curiosity 🧵⬇️ (1/4)

This year we posted 26 #econjmp posts by PhD students on the market. Here is the list of all of them in case you missed any, plus a link to the @econthatmatters.bsky.social series which has some more - great to see all the exciting work in development blogs.worldbank.org/en/impacteva...

Getting ready to do the cross-country CBC radio tour tomorrow morning! (Nothing about the FES, don't want to touch that!) Talking fertility, jobs, and the fact that some women just don't want to have lots of kids and that's okay!

Resigning on the day of FES is a boss move. Kudos to her.

That's right! Listen up #Econsky. We were just told we have a position, which means we—McGill Econ—are on the market. This is late in the game but the ad is now up and we encourage you to apply ASAP if interested! Link: econjobmarket.org/positions/11... Please RP, RT, whatever you do over here 😀

In Malawi to visit rural preschools and try to come up with research ideas. It's a bad drought, a bad hunger season, and kids are not coming to preschool because the whole family is hungry. Many look malnourished. My research ideas seem kind of stupid.

Malawi 🖤❤️💚
