Sad I missed #ASSA2019. Just finished watching the panel on solving gender issues in economics which I found both inspiring at times & depressing at times [sorry for a long thread]

Inspiring because we are finally having these discussions in economics especially after lots of data & evidence. Always find it stunning that as a profession we are so good at studying others but not ourselves (@Susan_Athey talks about this on the panel). Big thx to the panelists
Here are some egs of evidence (not exhaustive). First, @saskatchewin on how women get less credit for co-authoring. “Women however become less likely to receive tenure the more they coauthor. The result is most pronounced for women coauthoring with men”
