Six talks in 90 minutes last week at #aom2025 offered lots of valuable + efficient + international exchange on “New Insights into the Science of Science and Scientists”
Big thx to co-organizer @masterswaage.bsky.social (pic) & presenters incl @inaganguli.bsky.social w full roster in pics
Academic research (partly because it can take so long to produce) tends to strive for something approaching ~timelessness.
Grateful to see Harvard Business Review seeing value in findings of field research with big-city firefighters from more than a couple of years ago.
Thanks to Harvard Business Review for "Idea Watch" coverage in current (March/April 2025) print edition for research that's in-press at American Psychologist @apajournals.bsky.social
Fuller discussion of the findings is visible freely at psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...
Darwin Club webinar from 2023 from Robert Frank is visible here as example of format for upcoming virtual seminars quoted below: youtu.be/VfPEaUXIbQg?...
“The Case for Adding Darwin to Behavioural Economics” #econsky
“Darwin Club” webinars upcoming with notable authors on evolutionary perspectives
Free & open. DM for talk-specific links. Thx
TikTok has been focus (and source) for lots of academic research in recent years. Google Scholar link for “TikTok” here:

Economists have partly, at least, migrated to Bluesky and the American Economic Association (AEA) now focuses effort “here” (see pic)
Academy of Management (AOM) Annual Meeting will happen in July w/ deadline for submissions in next few days
Curious to see if AOM boosts this platform too #AOM2025
Topics at this year’s American Economic Association annual meeting?

Thx for circulating. Look forward to reading. Complementary look at population of PhD earners in US showed null relationship between interdisciplinarity (sometimes a measure of novelty) and parental education levels www.nber.org/system/files...
Big Thanks are owed to everyone involved with this year's 12th Annual Coaches Panel for #AEM3320 (Leadership and Management in Sports)
@ Cornell Football Head Coach Dan Swanstrom
@ Cornell Women's Basketball Head Coach Emily Garner
@ Cornell Men's Ice Hockey Head Coach Mike Schafer
With Fall24 classes done, Big Thanks are due to #AEM3245 capstone panelists
Brian Nicholson: never say never because life & work will most likely be non-linear
Greg Miller: "do people want to work for you?" is valuable self-test
Nancy Kirby: what people say when you leave a role is great other-test
Free (and science-based) replacement for the MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator)?
texl.org is new option with high upside
Led by @exeter.ac.uk faculty, TEXL offers many advantages (in addition to being free!)
Asked students in "Leadership and Management in Sports" yesterday if they've heard of Bluesky and at least 5 hands went up
@brianmills.bsky.social post below provided illustration for the #AEM3320 students of new, relevant, and accessible research-sharing on this channel
First post from this platform to be integrated into class for #AEM3245 earlier today
Reports on new + important findings while also showing how/where researchers are sharing results (across disciplines)
Thanks to @inaganguli.bsky.social for science-of-science Starter Pack
