LDI scholars at Allied Social Sciences Association 2022 Meeting
LDI’s leadership brought current research to early January’s 3-day ASSA meeting, which was held virtually for the second consecutive year. Each of LDI’s scholars contributed to a panel:
- Michele Belot and Philipp Kircher, “Broaden Your Horizon: Stimulating Occupational Mobility among Unemployed Job Seekers” with colleagues from Maastricht, VU Amsterdam, and Erasmus Universities.
- Erica Groshen, “Shock or Shift? COVID-19 and the Future of Work,” shared a platform with colleagues from academia, think tanks, the Federal Reserve, and online labor resourcing platforms.
- Lars Vilhuber, spoke among six scholars in the Journal of Econometics session, “Econometrics and Data in the 21st Century: Reproducibility and Transparency versus Privacy and Confidentiality”
Additionally, Vilhuber and collaborators’ state of the art work in teaching reproducibility was highlighted in a poster session, “Using the Social Science Reproduction Platform to Teach Reproducibility.”
Erica Groshen served as chair for two sessions in Production and Organizations and the Demand and Supply of Labor classifications at the conference.
Attracting over 13,000 attendees and over 550 sessions and associated events, ASSA is the centerpiece conference for North America’s Economics profession.
