Amazing paper 👇🏼👇🏼
Thrilled to see my study on cash transfers and women's employment featuring in @vox_dev!
In the paper, I show that Bolsa Família, Brazil's main transfer programme, increases mother's employment, and the effect is complemented by better local services👇

Hi, my name is Isaac Martinez. I am a PhD student in Economics at the LSE, and I wanted to share something personal. On July 6, 2025, I suffered a stroke while I was finishing my PhD. It was completely unexpected and changed my life. #EconTwitter #EconJobMarket

Incredibly important new work on intergenerational transmission of intrahousehold violence!
I'm on the #EconJobMarket!🥳 My research examines how childhood trauma from violence shapes household violence in adulthood. My #EconJMP asks: How do trauma histories interact with their partners' experiences to shape intimate partner violence and violence against children? 🧵

🚨 Exciting news: I’m on the job market this year! 🚨
My Job Market Paper asks:
💡 How do parents manage their children’s social media use, and can we help them do it better?
Gabriela Deschamps retweeted
Today @gabydesch (@ucl) presented “Motherhood and Violence”.
Using Mexican survey data, she showed that motherhood is linked to greater exposure to violence and lower likelihood of leaving a violent partner, highlighting the importance of fertility control.
Very excited to be a part of @StoneEcon_UCL and contribute to the research community!
A warm welcome to our two new postdocs, Gabriela Deschamps (@gabydesch) and Ossian Prane. Head over to our blog to read our introductory interview: stone-econ.org/news-and-blog…

Thanks to @econthatmatters for giving me the opportunity to write about my job market paper.
I explore why mothers are at higher risk of experiencing intimate partner violence. See below for more details!
Why are mothers at higher risk of violence? @gabydesch JMP found that motherhood increases the risk of experiencing violence because motherhood increases separation costs for women econthatmatters.com/2024/12/… #econtwitter #jmp
My research lies at the intersection of development and gender inequality.

Thank you @economeager for the great summary of my job market paper!
In this paper, I explain why motherhood increases the risk of experiencing Intimate Partner Violence (IPV).
Have a look if you're curious as to why selection is so important in IPV research.
