Many thanks to Pedro Carneiro for a fascinating Stone Centre breakfast on the links between childhood victimisation, mental health and adult crime.
Celebrating the work of the @ucleconomics.bsky.social team.
At this morning's Stone Centre breakfast François Gerard presented his work on how financial barriers shape access to justice in Brazil. We'll share a full research summary on the Stone Centre website soon. Thanks François!
Tamo Halder's free AI tutor for first-generation economics students is 1–2 months from its student trial.
A year on from our first conversation, he tells us where the project stands, and what's at stake when access to AI is unequal. www.stone-econ.org/news-and-blo...

New #inequality research co-authored by Stone Centre PhD Scholar Ararat Gocmen: "The top 0.5% wealth share would have grown by 26% less from 2010 to 2022 if U.S. HNWIs had invested in the NASDAQ 100 rather than U.S. early-stage companies." Full summary: www.stone-econ.org/research/pri...
Following his presentation at the Stone Centre breakfast, we sat down with UCL Professor of Economics and Co-Director of the IFS-CPP Attila Lindner to talk about minimum wages, labour markets, and inequality:

Stone Centre scholar Javier Boncompte on the UK sugar tax: "much of the policy's impact comes from firms reformulating their products to reduce sugar & avoid price increases, rather than consumers switching products." Javier discusses his research on our blog: www.stone-econ.org/news-and-blo...
Much of what we know about #inequality depends on getting the empirical methods right. Stone Centre grant recipient Liyang Sun is developing better tools for causal inference, so researchers & policymakers can draw on more reliable evidence. Find out more: www.stone-econ.org/news-and-blo...
Congratulations to Charyl Kong, winner of the 2026 Explore Econ Stone Centre Prize, for her dissertation on women's political empowerment in Brazil: "The policy moves women closer to political participation, but stops short of representation."
