Can an employer’s concern for their employees’ well-being lead to a form of discrimination?
@NinaBuchmann6 (@YaleEGC), Carl Meyer (@StanfordEcon) & @ColinD_Sullivan (@PittEcon) on paternalistic discrimination:

Amazing praise for my fantastic coauthor @NinaBuchmann6! Check out our paper on paternalistic discrimination (with Carl Meyer) here:

A week ago, I saw one of the most perfect economics presentations in my academic life, by Stanford's @NinaBuchmann6. "Paternalistic discrimination", when women are discriminated against not because of taste or statistics, but because someone cares about their security (dropbox.com/scl/fi/dol39m8ms…), is not close to my field, and neither are the controlled experiments, but it was an excellent presentation is a room filled by contrarian stars of the profession.

Had the pleasure of reading and discussing the job market paper by @NinaBuchmann6 and co-authors for the @EcScienceAssoc job market seminar series!

Why market design? I get to work w/ real-life superheroes: docs, nurses, organ donors- and be part of their work. #LiverExchange is live!! Who is next? I’m ready when you are.. @econD47 @VMDSeminar @ASTSChimera @AST_info @ttsorg @Transpl_Int @amjtransplant @ATCMeeting @SIEPR
This surgical innovation article documents a liver exchange mechanism that resulted in 3 liver allotransplants and 3 hepatectomies among 3 incompatible patient-donor pairs with living donor-patient ABO/size incompatibilities. ja.ma/3UCCUPq

A 🧵about "The Gender Gap in Self-Promotion," my paper with @christine_exley that is coming out in the #QJE.
We give subjects a math and science test. First, they guess their score. We then ask them subjective questions about how well they think they did on the test.

Do patients discriminate against doctors on the basis of race and gender? #EconTwitter check out this exciting new field experiment from @alex8chan! 1/4

Similar to my work with @juddkessler and @femonomics, but with two improvements: matches are validated with real appointments, and a treatment with doc quality identifies statistical discrimination. 3/4
