On my way home from our fourth annual CMA-Durham workshop on productivity, dynamism and market power. A few reflections: 1) Lots of emphasis on diffusion and dynamism. Drivers (networks, GPTs, well-targeted policies) and barriers (market power, information frictions, input bottlenecks). 1/

2) I continue to be amazed by the quality of early-career researchers and their willingness to tackle big questions: @econopete.bsky.social, @gaiadossi.bsky.social and Sergio Inferrera to name just three. 3) Great to see growing turnout from policymakers (this year, 50% of the audience). 2/

Latest paper on comparing intergenerational mobility of the kids of migrants with kids of locals in 15 countries. It has a very long author list so I feel like a real scientist at last. www.iza.org/publications...

US data from 1900-1970 shows people from lower socioeconomic backgrounds are under-represented in academia, more so than in other high-skilled occupations. R Abramitzky, L Greska, S Pérez @ucdavis.bsky.social, J Price, C Schwarz, F Waldinger @econmunich.bsky.social cepr.org/voxeu/column... #EconSky

Under-representation in academia raises concerns regarding equality of opportunity as well as efficiency. This column explores socioeconomic backgrounds in US academia between 1900 and 1970. Individuals from lower socioeconomic backgrounds are starkly and persistently under-represented in academia, more so than in other high-skilled occupations. And despite tending to publish more innovative work, scientists with a low-income father are less likely to win a Nobel Prize than those with a high-income father.

The NIH diversity supplement pages have all been pulled down. What is a diversity supplement and why should the public care? A diversity supplement is funding to help diversify the research workforce. You may be wondering, “so what?”. Let me explain. www.nigms.nih.gov/Pages/PageNo...
