Was lovely to see Dr Bateman @vnbateman.bsky.social lecturing at Gresham College today on How Women Made the Global Economy. Based on lessons from her new book, Economica, Dr Bateman explained the central role women have played as entrepreneurs, industrialists, and leaders across time and societies

Students be worried about what their 9th robustness test should be and not that they have one year of post-treatment data (and that one year discontinuously occurs 2yrs after treatment)

Hi #econsky, I'm Rhys, a first year PhD student at Cambridge. My research looks at competition policy in an empirical sense to evaluate whether policies are working or not.

Looking forward to interacting on here!
