A great write-up about Harry Markowitz and the Modern Portfolio Theory. Winning the 2011 Harry Markowitz Award in 2011 with Dr. @AndrewWLo and Eric Fielding from the @NTSB has been my proudest professional achievement. RIP. This is a life well lived.
Harry Markowitz, who won the Nobel in economic science in 1990 for his work on portfolio theory and the relationship between risk and reward, died last week at the age of 95. Aaron Brown looks at the legacy of Markowitz's work for @opinion. wealthmanagement.com/people/…

Harvey Lodish, an outstanding scientist & mentor in whose lab I did a great sabbatical in 1988, received honorary degree from the president of the Chinese University of Hong Kong last night in Cambridge MA, & I was delighted to attend with many old friends. Harvey going strong!

Well deserved buddy. Goodbye.
Thanks to generous support from a community of donors, Chicago Booth will rename the Initiative on Global Markets to the Kent A. Clark Center for Global Markets. The center’s new name honors the memory of the late Kent A. Clark, ’90. ms.spr.ly/6014gMWpM

Congratulations to my colleague @JohnHCochrane for winning the 2023 Bradley Prize! In addition to being a creative scholar, John is a very gifted communicator and expositor with often very interesting perspectives! This award is a well-deserved recognition of his outstanding contributions.

Congratulations to all of society, indeed! We should be marking this like we do public domain day for books… because these medicines have become public goods (ie get at low cost from @mcuban now). @IAmBiotech @PhRMA @CMSGov Can we have a Public Domain Day for Medicines?
Truly a wonderful event! These 8 blockbusters created enormous benefit for past patients and now begin their journey of being essentially free for future patients. At same time, genericization creates $45B headroom for new innovation. #socialcontract
