When families face sudden caregiving demands, ie child becoming seriously ill, mothers’ earnings fall sharply widening gender pay gap-but our research shows tht workplace conditions, flexible work hours and women in leadership roles, can significantly reduce these penalties.

Our paper with @davewjohnston.bsky.social & Peyman Firouzi Naem shows workplace policies and cultures significantly influence how families navigate serious caregiving demands. long-hour work cultures & limited % of women in leadership make it harder for mothers to stay engaged in the labor market
Very much looking forward to visiting Melbourne Institute, meeting the vibrant research community there, and present our new research on impacts of involuntary childlessness and ART treatment on mental health and income of women.

Fantastic! Huge congratulations! Such a great topic. Looking forward to seeing the work flourish.
I created an IZA @iza.org Network Fellows/Affiliates starterpack, starting from those I am following, and who are following me. I surely missed a lot. Please reply below this tweet and tag yourself and your fellow Fellows! #econsky #laboreconomics #econ

A few weeks ago, I spoke on a panel about publishing at the CSWEP’s CeMENT workshop. I wanted to briefly share some of that advice here.
We started @malengo.org in 2021 to support Ugandan students on their journey to a Bachelor's degree in Germany. We admitted 10 students in 2021; 30 in 2022; and 120 in 2023.
Our next goal: FOUR HUNDRED!
We urgently need both investors and donors — please read and spread widely! 1/n
When I first read Andrew Goodman-Bacon's paper on DiD and understanding the underlying 2x2 DiDs associated with every Two Way Fixed Effects, it really blew my mind. I found it tough to navigate, but i went step by step. I enclose below the Stata code, which does a simple GB DiD step by step. Enjoy.

Yo, JMCs
I have an idea for how to share new research while social media fragments..
In Nov/ Dec, I'll do weekly Substacks on new JMPs on gender.
If you'd like me to discuss your JMP, do share.
This would only be a nice, supportive discussion. 😊
