I genuinely believe this is well-deserved recognition of Bruce’s continuous and successful efforts in training and mentoring young researchers. He was incredibly supportive well before it was "fashionable". He truly cares about people and their careers. Well done! www.lancaster.ac.uk/news/oyal-ec...

We're launching a new article type at Health Economics - literature reviews. These should be in the style of JEL papers or Handbook chapters, not "Systematic Reviews" common in the clinical literature. We're excited to provide this new resource for our fast-moving field! See 👇

Power is finally back in our neighborhood in Madrid after more than 8 hours (!). Still no official explanation - it's all very odd #PowerOutage #Spain #Madrid

Today is #LiberationDay in Italy, the most important national holiday. On this day 80 years ago we were finally freed from Nazi occupation and the Fascist regime. I will never understand those who do not celebrate this date. Here are two pics from the liberation of Modena, my hometown.

I have to admit, I was pleasantly surprised to see King Charles making the effort to speak Italian more than once while visiting Italy this week. And I also liked what he said in the Italian Parliament too. www.bbc.com/news/videos/...
