Congrats!!
Trying my luck here: @jiafengkevinchen.bsky.social, @instrumenthull.bsky.social, and I just posted a question about conditional expectations under a nonparametric completeness condition. Any thoughts & suggestions much appreciated!

Tomorrow (Thu) at 1:45pm ET:
Check out @borusyak.bsky.social's presentation of work w/ Mauricio Caceres Bravo on demand estimation with recentered IVs @ the Frontier Econometric Methods NBER SI. We're honored to have Steve Berry as a discussant!
Should be livestreamed at youtube.com/@nbervideos
If you wanna learn more about this, check out @borusyak.bsky.social's presentation next Thursday at the new @nber.org Frontier Econometric Methods day

Excited to teach a diff-in-diff mini-course in Mexico City in September. Thanks to the organizers for the invitation!
For no particular reason, it might be a good time to repost my Starter pack of academic economists who study international trade

Super helpful, thanks Tom!
New tools for precisely estimating the effects of treatments defined by complex formulas, with an application to simulated instruments, from Kirill Borusyak and @instrumenthull.bsky.social https://www.nber.org/papers/w33594
Formula instruments are increasingly common: e.g. I notice most papers constructing climate shocks use them, +trade, labor etc.
Our new WP shows theoretically & practically how to build valid & powerful formula IVs. Big power gains in the simulated Medicaid eligibility setting.
Comments welcome!
Apologies for self-promotion but also our work with @instrumenthull.bsky.social, see e.g. Section 3.1: www.dropbox.com/s/e6wnzkpqf6... (new draft coming very soon btw)
