Have you ever heard of the conspiracy theory that Paul McCartney of The Beatles died in an accident in '66 and was then replaced by a doppelganger? It is a fan-favorite, and last weekend I decided to see if we could give empirical proof for this in a DiD-framework.🧵

Today, on Holocaust Memorial Day, I'm thinking about this little boy, the same age as my kids, proudly showing a flower to another child, outside a gas chamber at Auschwitz, where they were all murdered moments later. It is so important for us all to remember what happened.

Please apply. And note, this is a position that the rest of the world calls a post-doc but for reasons that I do not understand, the UofC forbids us from using that term. Call it an "after-Phd-two-year job with lots of flexibility to do your own research? Shhh

This looks like a great study. I anticipate ethics blowback, so let me say that if you (like me) are in the sample, you have to try extra hard to convince me your complaint has merit. I find the study unproblematic and super important. I wish individual effects were identifiable.
