David Card

All right, what you got for us this week, Amber?

We have a new NBER working paper, David Card and Laura Giuliano.

We like this pair.

We've heard from them in the past.

Berkeley's economics faculty has now produced six Nobel laureates over four decades.

Gerard Debreu in 1983, John C. Harsanyi in 1994, Daniel McFadden in 2000, George Akerlof in 2001, Oliver Williamson in 2009, and David Card in 2021.

During the 2025 to 2026 academic year, Berkeley Economics Department Chair Stefano Della Vigna noted that Woodford's intellectual ties extended across both the macroeconomics and behavioral research communities, and that his recent work drew on findings from cognitive and neuroscience to demonstrate how accurate modeling of information processing bears on public understanding of macroeconomic indicators such as inflation and economic growth.

Earlier in his career, Woodford guided the undergraduate theses of Amy Nakamura and Yon Steinsohn at Princeton in 2000 and 2001, respectively.
