Woo hoo! Our fertility clinics paper is officially published in Management Science! (thread below). On a more personal note, this research had a profound impact on @julia_bodner and my own fertility decisions: completely uncoordinated... we’re both expecting our first babies!
Are you interested in chain organizations, acquisitions, knowledge transfer, private equity, or IVF/fertility? Then check out the updated version of my paper joint w/ @julia_bodner

TLDR: Chains increase IVF volume and live birth rates! Thread below.

Thanks to LDI for the opportunity to discuss work with
@asacarny and @ambarlaforgia on the outlier payments scandal and its policy relevance today! Feels like there is a new scandal in some government program every week. This paper documents how firms used the windfall!
How do for-profit and nonprofit hospitals act when a 2000s-era loophole created an opportunity to game the system for extra revenue?
A study by LDI Fellow @gupta_atulk shows both took advantage but did different things with their windfalls.

This is a great thread for RCT nerds on the technical points of this study. A lot of thought went into it and it was not at all trivial to pull off:

The incumbent president believes polling should reflect what he sees as his accomplishments, and doesn't believe the polling because he thinks he should be more popular @katierogers @llerer @reidepstein me nytimes.com/2024/07/16/us/po…
Throwback to May 25, 2017 on the google chat logs

The fun part of @JDVance1 being the VP nominee is we can tell everyone about the time that @smilleralert, @asacarny, @agoodmanbacon and I argued with him on twitter dot com over the meaning of "lack of statistical significance"
