This is a fantastic paper. Both economics and econ-oriented strategy departments should give Pier's work a close look!
Pier Paolo Creanza’s (@ppcreanza) job market paper studies how the Great Merger Wave (1895-1904) shaped American innovation before WW2. ppcreanza.com
Hi all, please spread the word and we hope everyone can make good use of this new data drop: CMFdata.org The full surviving establishment-level Census of Manufactures manuscripts from 1850, 1860, 1870, and 1880!

Earlier this year, the President’s budget proposed a 40% cut to the NIH budget. This sparked an obvious research question: What if the NIH had been 40% smaller in previous years? Here’s what Pierre Azoulay, Danielle Li, Bhaven Sampat, and I found when we looked at grants that…

Incredibly excited for my brand new class at Toronto Rotman this fall: Progress! Econ history + theory + history of tech/thought + philosophy on why rare orgs at rare times in rare places accomplish new things. Trying to put rigor onto an idea that is very much in the air. 1/3
Most people think “indirect costs” for government-funded scientific research have grown out of control (some universities charge >60% rates). In response, the Trump admin tried to cap them at 15%. But this whole debate rests on a false premise: While ***negotiated indirect…
Big thanks to @matthewesche and the @IFP team for spotlighting our work on #IndirectCostRecovery, a previously-arcane but tremendously important part of federal S&T policy. We hope it's helpful to improving understanding and charting a path forward.
In a new @IFP policy brief, @pierre_azoulay, @daniel_p_gross, and Bhaven Sampat analyze new data from NIH-funded institutions to clarify what is happening with indirect cost rates. ifp.org/indirect-cost-… Some key charts:
We mapped who supports US STEM PhDs. Fed govt by far the main funder, esp in science for critical tech like AI and quantum. Less govt funding -> fewer graduates. Further details: drorshvadron.com/research/docto… Joint with @HansenZhang13, Lee Fleming and @daniel_p_gross
Leveraging new data on US STEM PhDs to study who funds PhD training, where students train in critical and emerging technology areas, and how federal funding affects PhD production, from @DShvadron, @HansenZhang13, @Lee Fleming, and @daniel_p_gross nber.org/papers/w33944
New @nberpubs working paper on the production of U.S. PhDs in science and emerging tech fields from @daniel_p_gross & colleagues nber.org/papers/w33944
📑New data, old debates: US government-funded R&D and patent policy @daniel_p_gross and Bhaven Sampat examine a dataset of US government-funded R&D patent records and analyse long-run patterns in US patent policy. ow.ly/IFjI50VHMjF #WorldIPDay
Reviewing the history of US indirect cost recovery policy, presenting new data on indirect cost recovery rates, modeling the effects of a 15 percent cap at the NIH, and evaluating tradeoffs across reform options, from @pierre_azoulay, @daniel_p_gross, and Bhaven N. Sampat…
Great as always from @daniel_p_gross and Bhaven. A friend was joking this week that their work shows so much innovation benefit across sectors from WW2 that the war is dangerously close to a net welfare benefit! Also see the correct point on linear model (more on this soon!)
The US WW2 medical research and development effort catalyzed postwar science, modernized drug discovery, and fueled the postwar National Institutes of Health — reshaping biomedical innovation for decades, from @daniel_p_gross and Bhaven N. Sampat nber.org/papers/w33457
Nope. This paper is about US academics 1900-1960! The present looks different. Asking people to stop drawing inference from these stats as if they're about the present & asking authors to put time period in their title and abstract! 🙏
Who are the hyper privileged rich academics? Humanities. New paper by Ran Abramitzky and colleagues
