SUMMARY:Sonalde Desai\, University of Maryland (IN-PERSON EVENT ONLY)
DESCRIPTION:Please note that this is an in-person event only. The talk will not be live streamed or recorded.  \nBiography: Sonalde Desai (Distinguished University Professor\, Department of Sociology\, University of Maryland and Professor and Centre Director\, NCAER-National Data Innovation Center\, New Delhi) is a demographer whose work deals primarily with social transformation and its impact on the lives of individuals with a focus on education\, employment\, gender\, and maternal and child health. She leads the India Human Development Survey of over 40\,000 households\, one of the few national panel surveys in India providing a rich and free public resource for studying the transformation of Indian society in the 21st Century. Since April 2020\, Desai and her colleagues at NDIC have carried out telephone surveys around COVID-related experiences in Delhi National Capital Region. She received a Ph.D. from Stanford University and post-doctoral training at the University of Chicago and RAND Corporation. Desai was elected President of the Population Association of America for 2022. She is a frequent contributor to Indian newspapers and has published extensively in Indian and international journals. \nThe Global Aspirational Class and Its Demographic Fortunes \nAbstract: Global educational expansion and growth in middle-income households in low and middle-income countries (LMICs) have brought worldwide attention to the social transformation underway in many countries. Yet\, simultaneously\, income inequalities within LMICs have also grown sharply\, and employment opportunities have lagged behind the aspirational shifts. This seminar will examine the changes in education and employment opportunities in LMICs over the past three decades and explore changes in marriage\, fertility\, and investments in children that have accompanied these economic changes.

SUMMARY:Workshop: From preprints to tweets: The professional benefits and potential perils of online presence
DESCRIPTION:From preprints to tweets: the professional benefits and potential perils of online presence \nPanelists: Elizabeth Rose Mayeda (Epi) and Julian Londoño-Vélez (Econ) \nModerator: Patrick Heuveline (Soc) \nElizabeth Rose Mayeda (she/her) is an Associate Professor in the Department of Epidemiology at the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health. Dr. Mayeda’s research focuses on identifying modifiable determinants of cognitive decline\, dementia\, and stroke in late life. Her research program has both applied and methodological themes. She focuses on describing and identifying mechanisms contributing to disparities in late-life cognitive and brain health and also leads work addressing methodological challenges in longitudinal studies of stroke\, cognitive aging\, and dementia risk. Her long-term research goals are to: (1) identify effective population-level strategies to prevent dementia and eliminate disparities in dementia and (2) develop research tools to strengthen causal inference in dementia research and lifecourse epidemiology. \nJuliana Londoño-Vélez is an Assistant Professor of Economics at the University of California\, Los Angeles\, and a Faculty Research Fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research. Her work primarily focuses on inequality and redistributive tax and transfer policies\, with a special interest in developing countries. \nPatrick Heuveline is a Professor of Sociology at UCLA. He is also the Associate Director of the UCLA California Center for Population Research. \nWorkshop Description: Our panelists will discuss how to advertise yourself and your work online. Should you have your own website and\, if so\, what should be included (or not)? Should you post unpublished work as preprints and\, if so\, at what stage of development? Should you be active on social media and\, if so\, how much is too much?

SUMMARY:Yotam Shem-Tov\, UCLA
DESCRIPTION:Biography: Yotam Shem-Tov is an Assistant Professor of Economics at UCLA. His research primarily focuses on Labor and Public Economics with a special interest in the U.S. criminal justice system. He received a BA in Economics and Philosophy from Tel-Aviv University and a PhD in Economics from UC Berkeley. \nHow Replaceable is a Low-Wage Job? \nAbstract: This paper studies the long-run consequences of losing a low-wage job using linked employer-employee wage records and household surveys. For full-time workers earning $15 per hour or less\, job loss due to an idiosyncratic\, firm-wide contraction generates a 13% reduction in earnings 4-6 years later and more than $40\,000 cumulative lost earnings. Most of this long-run decrease stems from reductions in employment and hours as opposed to wage rates: job losers are twice as likely to report being unemployed and looking for work\, and annual weeks worked are reduced by 10%. By contrast\, workers initially earning more than $15 per hour see comparable long-run earnings losses driven primarily by reductions in hourly wages. We interpret these effects through a dynamic job-ladder model\, which implies that the flow rents from holding a full-time $15 per hour job relative to unemployment are 3.1% of earnings. \nYou may access the recording here.
