8/Regarding social norms, the effects of college access even go beyond the household level. Women in treated districts have greater freedom 🕊️

7/The second mechanism has two parts: social norms and empowerment. We first show that women were ⬆️ likely to report that domestic violence is unjustified, they have improvements in ownership and more participation in household decision-making.

6/ Women in treated districts ⬆️ 14.7 minutes more on paid employment work, ⬆️12 minutes on own-used production and ⬇️ 13 minutes on domestic tasks

4/Using RDD, we report that the college expansion program reduced the likelihood of domestic violence by about 4 percentage points (all type of violence). Interestingly, the effect is driven by the younger cohort, who are more likely to exposed to the program.

3/We show that the program indeed increased the number of colleges in treated districts and educational attainment of women rose as a result👩‍🎓👩‍🎓👩‍🎓

I am very excited to share our new working paper "College Access and Domestic Violence". This is a joint work with Sudhir Singh from University of Rochester.

An amazing workshop by my colleague Dan Rees at UC3M and Mark Anderson at Montana State. You will learn about how to write an applied paper, publication process, etc. If you are from low income countries, you only need to pay 1$. DM me for more info & to get the discounted fee!

I have loved math since I was a child, but it was not until I started teaching that I realized how challenging—and rewarding—it can be. I'm glad that some students have found it helpful along the way.

An exciting lecture of @pedrosantanna.bsky.social in Madrid this morning, and we indeed are living in a fascinating time of DiD!

8) Another hypothesis is that male-dominated cancers may have a higher burden than female-dominated cancers, resulting in greater resource allocation. However, there is no clear evidence to support this hypothesis.

7) We test whether male-dominated cancers receive superior research outputs compared to female-dominated cancers. Our findings show that:
- No difference in research outputs between them
- ⬆️female evaluators in the panel ➡️ applicants with better research outputs.

6) We explore the role of researchers' gender and gender composition of evaluation panels. There are two key findings:
- No association between researchers’ gender and funding outcomes
- ⬆️female presentation in the panels ⬇️funding bias toward male-dominated projects

5) If men dominate cancer research, fewer researchers may focus on female-dominated cancers. Using the Publons platform, we compiled a list of cancer researchers in Europe and found that male researchers are over-represented, particularly in top ranks.
April 7, 2025 at 3:05 PM
3) The findings suggest that male-dominated cancers receive 3.7% more funding than female-dominated cancers.

1) The motivation of this project came from a very sad post 4 years ago. Dr. Chaudhir was an amazing researcher, who passed away because of ovarian cancer. In a post that received 54k views, she highlighted that ovarian cancer is underfunded.

I’m happy to share our new working paper, "Are Female-Dominated Cancers Underfunded?", co-authored with my incredible doctoral advisors, @juditvall.bsky.social and @lidiafarre.bsky.social . This paper has evoked a range of emotions, but we hope it sheds light on an important topic.

I believe that tennis teaches us some valuable life lessons. You can start bad, but it does not mean that you will lose. So many things can happen in the process, we just need to trust #DavisCup #USAvsAUS #ITAvsARG
