Two weeks ago, I had the pleasure of running a special session for our Master’s students at @lsesocialpolicy.bsky.social on Uncertainty in the Digital World during their Away Day at the Barbican, based on my ongoing research agenda (see my previous post about my JMP!).

🚨 Exciting news — I’m on the job market this year! 🚨

My Job Market Paper asks:

💡 How do parents manage their children’s social media use, and can we help them do it better?

I thank Almudena Sevilla for the opportunity to write this review and present it (cool pic of some other contributors of the issue and participants to the launch event below! 👇), as well as @paolaprofeta.bsky.social for her help and insights in writing this!

📣 New Paper 📣

Really proud of our review "The Economic Effects of Sexual Harassment in the Workplace" published in the LSE Public Policy Review in the special issue "Multidimensional approaches and policy innovation in gender research" co-authored with my colleague Caroline Coly!

And as you can see from my face... I had a great day! Learned so much from every presenter and discussant about frontier research in gender econ. A big thank you to all presenters/discussants/attendees online or in person for such a day 🥰

And last by not least: Can AI help promote gender equality? A great experiment by Daniel Carvajal, discussed by @paolaprofeta.bsky.social 📈 Did you know that women are not adopting AI as much as men?

Our last session started with @ondineberland.bsky.social
's paper on the carbone footprint by gender. Men actually pollute more than women, mainly because of food and transport 🧑‍🍳🚗 Some interesting insights from Manuel Bagues's discussion!

Next, we heard from Matthew Baird from
LinkedIn's Economic Graph Research Institute team, using LinkedIn data to understand G-AI skills by gender. Discussed by Germain Gauthier 🤝

We kicked off the afternoon session with
@kenza-elass.bsky.social's paper on Generative AI and labor market discriminations, discussed by @saraspaziani.bsky.social Ever wondered if ChatGPT knew your gender? Sara tried!! 💻

And to close our first session in the morning, Rachel Ngai presented her impressive work on hours of paid and unpaid work of women in the US, including data from the 19th century! With a great discussion from Cecilia García Peñalosa 📈📉

Followed by Almudena Sevilla
on the role of "on-call" parenting in explaining the child penalty! 📲 Gabriel Leite Mariante offered a great discussion

We started with Matthias Doepke's presentation, discussed by @berkayozcan.bsky.social: "The Economics of Fertility: a New Era". Mind-blowing!

"Gender Inequality: Navigating New frontiers And Paradigm Shifts": what an event !! Super proud of our organizing team for making this happen! Almudena Sevilla, @berkayozcan.bsky.social @paolaprofeta.bsky.social @kenza-elass.bsky.social 🥳 A brief overview of last week's event👇
