Freue mich auf die Zusammenarbeit @SVR_Wirtschaft. Gerade jetzt. Ich hoffe, zu einer erfolgreichen Politikberatung beizutragen. Excited to join @SVR_Wirtschaft & contribute to economic policy-making in Germany. I hope my expertise and international perspective will be helpful.

Incredibly grateful for the generous endowment, and excited to help support the next generation of behavioral economics research: making economics truly about humans and integrating insights from medicine, neuropsychiatry, cognitive science, biology and more. 1/2

Incredibly bad news for Economics in Germany. It was such a coup to attract a young superstar to run one of our leading research institutes away from MIT. I can’t believe we are losing him and all the potential he brought to IZA.

Beben in Bonn: @simon_jaeger verlässt @iza_bonn. Das @briq_institute wird mit dem IZA zwangsfusioniert, denn die Finanzierung wird drastisch gekürzt. Neuer Chef des fusionierten Instituts wird Armin Falk. Weitere Hintergründe @handelsblatt handelsblatt.com/29494570.html?…

Celebrating Janet Yellen at Berkeley!! So much excitement, happiness, and the truth why she still comes to visit us. (Spoiler: It's mostly red, and in season June-September.)

Very exciting news for the Paris School of Economics & economics in Europe. If there is a person who can help to further even out the US-tilt in economics and let all the amazing talent and incredible researchers in Paris and Europe shine, it’s Esther. Congrats, Esther and PSE!

For non-Germans who have been wondering what’s up with German fiscal policy and the Federal Constitutional Court, we wrote a policy brief explaining it all & how to fix it. Here is the English press release: sachverstaendigenrat-wirtschaft.de/en/publication…. Translation of policy brief coming shortly.

The *scientific council* was dissolved on 9/30/2023. But I don’t think we (Janet Currie, Jim Heckman, and I) would have been involved in merger / leadership transition. Vorstand + Kuratorium? Would have loved help find a better solution. (Still do.)

Spielräume durch das Finanzpaket dürfen nicht für "konsumptive" Ausgaben, sondern müssen tatsächlich für INVESTITIONEN genutzt werden. Als Negativbeispiele sehe ich die #Mütterrente sowie die Wiedereinführung der #Dieselsubventionierung für Landwirte.

It was great to host @Bundesbank President Joachim Nagel at @BerkeleyHaas . We had inspiring exchanges with Germans at @sffed , macroeconomists at @UCBerkeley , the research department @SFFed, and German FinTechs in the Bay Area — about the importance of top notch researchers…
