Everybody talked about and to some extent admired Daron Ace during my PhD, because he is the king of publication on top 5 econ journals. It seems so easy for him to publish top 5…I think he is well deserved the Nobel.

[Lionel Page @page_eco]

Discussions on the award of the Nobel Prize in economics to Acemoglu, Johnson, and Robinson have often focused on their empirical papers on economic growth.
A🧵 to point to the big picture: how they transformed the discipline.

The most interesting finding: Although hospital-based monitoring is generally preferred, patients with prior experience in community services actually prefer community based monitoring, suggesting that experience and familiarity play roles here

Our recent article with colleagues from @HERU_Abdn investigates patients’ preferences for alternative ways of ocular hypertension monitoring using a choice experiment https://t.co/wY0Fq3Idkb

and other institutions assessed the cost-effectiveness of making treatment decisions for ocular hypertension patients based on a risk prediction tool in the UK

[Hangjian Wu @hw26896759]

@HERU_Abdn We simulated individual patients from a rick dataset containing 5000+ patients from electronic medical records using a novel discrete event simulation model. The results suggest that risk prediction strategy had a 96% probability of being cost effective

Sounds very interesting; will read tomorrow.

New paper out!
Habe you ever wondered how to incorporate resource scarcity in the elicitation of preferences for resource allocations? Or have you ever wanted to conduct a discrete-continuous choice experiment? Then perhaps PVE is of interest to you! https://t.co/QUEf7NzZKO
