@lrssdnz Mas antes de tomar essa decisão eu procurei uma formação rigorosa como pesquisador aplicado (até entender que não era o que queria), então estou à disposição para ajudar em qualquer coisa.

What's the current status of causal inference in political science? Since the advent of the credibility revolution social scientists pay more attention to establishing cause-and-effect relationships. But how has poli sci responded to the new methods and trends? (1/n)

@gsxcarmo Thanks, Gabi! A challenging, but rewarding year.

[João Alípio-Correa @joaoalipioapc]

Wrapping up my first year as a PhD student: countless problem sets, term papers, and final exams! On top of meeting and working with excellent people in a great environment, I also have some exciting stuff happening:

Finally, I am excited to be the recipient of an ICPSR scholarship and funding for an experiment!
Looking forward to (some rest) and the coming year!

Three papers coming up: one on support for regimes and democratic deconsolidation; two others with @laurabegc on party-sponsored protests and democracy + one on measurement and non unimodal distributions.
