A look at the experiences of intersex individuals in Mexico reveals disparities affecting their health and livelihoods. Intersex people are born with physical sex characteristics that don’t fit typical definitions of male or female bodies. In PNAS Nexus: academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/ar...

Had a great time presenting and attending the Bristol Applied Economics Meetings! The quality of presentations was impressive, and I received valuable feedback on my research with @alisto.bsky.social and @ercio.bsky.social on measuring attitudes toward sexual minorities 🏳️‍🌈 doi.org/10.48550/arX...

Last but not least @sansoneecon.bsky.social studying the sources of taste discrimination using list experiments. In Chile, many say they're comfortable with gay colleagues—but list experiments reveal far more discomfort suggesting social pressure masks discrimination.

🚨New in PNAS Nexus: We analyze nationally representative data from Mexico on intersex individuals—1.6% of the pop. 📊 Findings show major disparities in mental health, workplace rejection & violence. Urgent need for inclusive policy. 📄 doi.org/10.1093/pnas... #Intersex #LGBTQI #HealthEquity

Prejudice is common in modern societies. Reducing prejudice is difficult to do, particularly in a cost-effective & scalable manner. Can AI help reduce prejudice? My new working paper w @semrasevi.bsky.social, @mbosley.bsky.social & Crabtree examines this question! papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

Now that #PAA2025 is over, why not think about submitting your work to the Queer Demography session I'm co-organising with @mortenkthomsen.bsky.social at @bspsuk.bsky.social? We welcome abstracts on LGBTQIA+ populations at any stage of development. Deadline: May 9th www.lse.ac.uk/internationa...
