Yes, John, you should come on down to join us! And bring some students along too!

[John A. List @Econ_4_Everyone]

A wonderful opportunity here. @Tim_Cason and colleagues are constantly pushing the frontier of science. If they allow I would love to drive down and sit in myself to learn.

[Tim Cason @Tim_Cason]

Workshop at Purdue in May for early career experimental economists! Your expenses are paid for, you learn new techniques and can present your research. Plus, you can stay on for our lab reopening conference celebration! https://t.co/44IuF4ftIp

[James Bland @JamesBland_Econ]

Experimental Econ PhD students: have you ever wanted to estimate a structural model? Come learn about how to do it from me at The Learning, Computational and Bayesian Methods workshop at Purdue in May!

It was our great pleasure to host Alisa, an amazing scholar! She is on the job market, too, and any sensible department should jump at the opportunity to add her to their team. She is a wonderful colleague! #econX

[Alisa Frey @AlisaFrey]

Goodbye & see you soon!
Sadly, my incredibly amazing visit to @PurdueBusiness has come to an end.
Thank you so much @Tim_Cason for hosting me! I am so glad that I had the chance to spend the last 3 months in the Midwest - with so many nice people & great experimental economists😊

[Tim Cason @Tim_Cason]

What the hell happened? When we first started paying for her college tuition, she was a music (vocal) performance major!

[Sydney Cason @sydneyecason]

My last paper from grad school is in press! Please check it out--thanks to good suggestions from reviewers and a lot more work, it has a significantly more detail than the BioRxiv version @ErikaHolzbaur @JCellBiol https://t.co/SMgxDtZNRm

[Tim Cason @Tim_Cason]

Love to see my great colleagues like @RelihanLindsay cited in the @NYTimes.

Environmental organizations create or make changes to 1000s of programs each year, but rarely do they deliberately design these innovations to learn about impacts or to test our implicit models of how the world works. We can do better. https://t.co/kBA9IJVSri

Congrats to @KirbyKNielsen and @JRehbeck for winning the 2023 Exeter Prize for Behavioural Economics for DOI: 10.1257/aer.20201550.

Please consider joining hundreds of your economics colleagues in signing this important petition to request that the AEA help stop the toxic EJMR.

[Anya Samek 🇺🇦 @AnyaSamek]

Friends and #EconTwitter: I have started a petition to request the AEA to help pursue libel and threats on the EJMR. Please spread the word and sign if you are able. https://t.co/3jl6UjSrYS

Happy holidays from 3 generations of Dr. Cason (with our dissertations in economics, neuroscience, and physics) 🥂 @Tim_Cason

[Sydney Cason @sydneyecason]

Beautiful cover design inspired by our review on axonal transport! @NatRevMCB @ErikaHolzbaur

[Tim Cason @Tim_Cason]

Super proud of our ⁦@PurdueKrannert⁩ alum ⁦@AnyaSamek⁩ who delivered a fantastic opening keynote talk at the ⁦@EcScienceAssoc⁩ conference this morning—on the value of combining survey and experimental evidence

[Tim Cason @Tim_Cason]

Do committees with more women make choices that are kinder to outsiders?
Yes, but the social preferences of group members, irrespective of gender, has more influence on decisions.
We also show that all genders believe women will make kinder choices than men. @JPubEcon 2/2

[Tim Cason @Tim_Cason]

New paper on gender and (group) decision-making just published in Journal of Public Economics with Lata Gangadharan and Phil Grossman of @MonashUni @EcScienceAssoc @KrannertPURCE 1/2 https://t.co/mRqnhtZJGe

She continues an academic family tradition, with PhDs earned by her grandpa Neal Cason (physics), uncle Jeff Cason (poli sci) and dad Tim (econ). We could almost start our own college!

[Tim Cason @Tim_Cason]

So proud of my brilliant daughter @sydneyecason who crushed it on her neuroscience PhD thesis defense at @PennNGG !! She is #PhDone and heading soon to her @Yale postdoc!
