After an intense but fun week with teaching (me) or participating in (everyone else) "A hands-on introduction to Longitudinal and Panel Data Analysis" at @komex.bsky.social   we all deserve (even more than usually) a relaxing weekend.

To every instructor and teaching assistant who made #komex2026 possible: Thank you. For your expertise. For your patience. For your dedication. For creating spaces where learning happens. For caring deeply about methods education. #komex2026 was extraordinary because of you. With gratitude 💙

Today's the last day of our @komex.bsky.social course, "Doing Fieldwork in Challenging Contexts" with @xiananj.bsky.social and @surajtelange.bsky.social. What a week of thoughtful and emotional discussions we've had! Our participants are doing inspirational work - its been a privilege to teach them!

Hybrid roundtable at #KOMEX2026 on AI-assisted research discussing transparency, rigor, documentation, and integrity. Great exchange across econometrics, data science, public administration, and research design. Thank you to our panelists and to everyone who participated with insightful questions.

Wow Wow Wow! Super happy & honoured to receive this "outstanding @komex.bsky.social course award" for my course "A hands-on introduction to longitudinal and panel data analysis" of last year!
