Had a great time presenting and attending the Bristol Applied Economics Meetings!

The quality of presentations was impressive, and I received valuable feedback on my research with @alisto.bsky.social and @ercio.bsky.social on measuring attitudes toward sexual minorities 🏳️‍🌈

🚨New in PNAS Nexus: We analyze nationally representative data from Mexico on intersex individuals—1.6% of the pop. 📊

My new working paper w @semrasevi.bsky.social, @mbosley.bsky.social & Crabtree examines this question!
