Thanks @AEAjournals for featuring our work on OB unit closures in the US!

Headline result:

While mothers—especially in rural areas—travel farther for care, they receive better care.

Obstetric unit closures in the US have little to no impact on maternal and infant health outcomes, but they may lead women to deliver in higher-quality hospitals, say researchers @MonashUni and @EconomicsUcsb. #Chart https://t.co/cTGyAEYPXN

The Monash Econ department is delighted to have four amazing economists join us this next year! We look forward to your arrival. @MonashBusiness

Recruiting is hard work, but it was fun meeting so many new economists working on important topics. The future is bright!

[Michael B. Ward @embeeward]

What a fantastic recruiting year we had! Monash Economics welcomes Lisa Botbol (Toulouse), Alexander Haas @ahaas_econ (Oxford), Santiago Hermo (Brown), and Kate Huang (Caltech) as our newest members. Great people and great economists all.

Job market candidates: Please triple-check the differences in time zones. It breaks my heart when a candidate is confused with the time differences and they show up late. First impressions matter a lot!

[Stefanie Fischer @stef_fischer]

Thank you @ToddMorrisEcon for jumping on the program last minute and sharing your exciting new work! Hope to see you next time.

[Todd Morris @ToddMorrisEcon]
