**New working paper**
How does the under-representation of females in Economics affect the career trajectory of female Ph.D. students?
Sahar Parsa and I look at this in a new working paper by exploring sabbatical leaves taken by female professors at top-50 US Econ departments.

#GDRI_rep Update 9: We have been waiting a couple of months to make two announcements. A few journals were in the process of retracting GDRI article. The editors informed the authors and then lawyers got involved. Who knows how long it will take.

Important paper from @anderskjelsrud.bsky.social and Sahar!
Female PhD students (in economics) benefit tremendously from having female faculty around.
When female professors go on leave, it decreases third-year female PhD students’ likelihood of publishing & securing academic positions.

Update: We submitted the comment to the Journal of Population Economics, and today we got a desk reject with this motivation. However, we do not know their conclusion about the main results and why the paper was not retracted. Clearly, they do not hold. 1/4

👏 Good news for researchers working with Swedish register data and who want their research to be reproducible 👉 If you include in your ethics application/research plan that replication may be part of the project, then external replicators (e.g. data editors) can be given access to the data!
