Congratulations Dani (Dani Arribas-Bel `@[email protected]`) on being awarded the Royal Geographic Society's (@RGS_IBG) Taylor & Francis Award for 'leading the way in integrating data science into geography'!

Thrilled & grateful to get an ERC Advanced Grant for 'City Buzz: Quantity, quality, and variety implications of the urban environment.' My research career would not be possible without the 3 Adv. Grants from @ERCResearch supporting my research at @CEMFINews since 2012. Thank you

Neat in @AEAJournals Policy by Borraz, Nicolás González-Pampillón, Felipe Carozzi & Zipitría. Uses place-based tax break to show housing stock growth raises grocery variety, lowers prices, little store change. Rationalised w/ Thierry Mayer, Melitz, Ottaviano model doi.org/10.1257/pol.20…

The IEB Workshop on Urban Economics in Barcelona is always one of the most interesting and fun conferences on spatial topics. Applications open until 4 March, workshop 10-12 June 2024 ieb.ub.edu/wp-content/upl…

Having Monica MartinezBravo as a colleague is a great perk of @CEMFINews. With her appointment to lead Spain's social inclusion policies, Mónica goes from informing policy with RCTs to making informed decisions herself, a big step towards evidence-based policies & effective inclusion

Carmen Valero shattered barriers as Spain's first female Olympic athlete & 2-time World XC Champion in an era when women were largely excluded from sports & other male-dominated roles. Spain's dramatic evolution since then is a tribute to her pioneering spirit & lasting legacy

Un privilegio haber estado en el Consejo Asesor de Asuntos Económicos. Gracias Nadia Calviño y su equipo por la confianza y el liderazgo económico en una época compleja, lo mejor para la nueva etapa en European Investment Bank y enhorabuena al nuevo ministro de Economía Carlos Cuerpo, gran elección
