My research has been featured in @RMIT University's videos on Ph.D. Here is a short less than two-minute video on my topic of study: https://t.co/NMvK3XGENL

New article by me!

Cardiovascular disease mortality rates have declined by around three-quarters since 1950, but we rarely hear about it.

I explore some of the reasons behind the decline.

i’m a strong believer in the power of “granny hobbies” to improve your mental health (and detox from digital everything)

reading, knitting, gardening, crafting, cooking, baking, board games, sewing, birdwatching, playing cards, drinking tea …

Obviously, France is not the only country where this is true — the same is true for many countries.

Until 50 years ago, CO₂ emissions developed in lockstep with economic growth in France.

Since the early 1970s, the opposite has been true: emissions declined as people in France got richer.

Seeking scientist volunteers! Want to practice science communication and help author a ✨comic✨ about your research? I need collaborators for this spring's cohort of SciComm & Comics art students! Please share widely. #STEMeducation #Science #sciart

The same is true in universities - a minority of (high-ranking) academics are responsible for the vast majority of air-travel emissions; and yet, research finds that air travel does not influence professional success!

@Dr_Meming Sorry if i write down this post but i am desperate to find someone that can help me resolve an error on a code on R studio quickly 🙏🏻

Hey #AcademicTwitter, can you recommend any longitudinal survey data with social trust, altruism, or other prosocial attitudes and behaviors?

I'm especially interested in geocoded, multi-wave panels from outside of the US and Europe.

It's #MentalHealthWeek here, and each day I'll be sharing an image from my #AcademicMentalHealth art collaboration with the wonderful Lucia Gomez Alcaide.

Here is a reminder to all universities that free yoga and mindfulness sessions will not address systemic overwork, wage theft, bullying, the stress of precarious employment, and other harmful work behaviours. Do better.

Whenever I have a strong burst of intense productivity, I think to myself "if I worked like this all of the time, imagine how much progress I'd make, it would be amazing!"

I then remind myself that I'd burn out, my mental health would be terrible, and I'd have no life.

My favorite figure is actually from the presentation. I didn't see it in the press release.

Her work is about taking a wide-ranging, historical approach to studying labor markets. This is an economic history prize, even if that's not in the tagline https://t.co/mkwvy6cfkM

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

This year’s economic sciences laureate Claudia Goldin showed that female participation in the labour market did not have an upward trend over a 200 year period, but instead forms a U-shaped curve.

The participation of married women decreased with the transition from an agrarian to an industrial society in the early nineteenth century, but then started to increase with the growth of the service sector in the early twentieth century. Goldin explained this pattern as the result of structural change and evolving social norms regarding women’s responsibilities for home and family.

It's not okay to offer funding where the recipient uses their own money first and is reimbursed later. This barrier puts serious pressure on those in less privileged positions. Many struggle (silently) or lose out completely. Reduce inequity by offering resources up front.
