IO reading group note (12/4/2025): Grennan & Town "Regulating Innovation with Uncertain Quality". Clear motivation, data, & institutional context. Uncertainty about quality is rightly the focus, which makes the model look complicated---but probably among the simplest possible.

IO reading group note (11/20/2025): We read @saltmann.bsky.social's study of the design of @feedingamerica.org’s allocation mechanism. Clean model with involved identification and estimation procedures. Contribution to empirical auction models with dynamics, with clear motivations.
