SUMMARY:Research Seminar - Economic implications of the Inflation Reduction Act: A Dynamic Analysis
DESCRIPTION:The Growth Lab’s Research Seminar series is a weekly seminar that brings together researchers from across the academic spectrum who share an interest in growth and development. 	Speakers:  	María C. Latorre\, Associate Professor at Universidad Complutense of MadridDavid Suárez-Cuesta\, Faculty Member at Universidad Complutense of MadridLocation: Wexner-102 / ZoomWhether attending in person or online please register in advance. 	Abstract: We expand a dynamic Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model to analyze the economic impact of the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). This approach allows for a comprehensive economic analysis\, considering both macro and microeconomic implications. The IRA encompasses a range of policy measures\, both expansionary and contractionary\, implemented between 2022 and 2031. By employing a combination of tax incentives and reforms\, the IRA leads to a modest overall increase in U.S. GDP\, reaching its peak in the mid-decade. However\, these positive effects are tempered by inflationary pressures\, resulting in reduced export competitiveness\, except in sectors directly affected by the IRA\, such as Motor Vehicles and Electrical Equipment. Additionally\, the tax reforms aimed at financing the IRA primarily target corporations\, leading to a significant contractionary effect on the economy. This results in a slight reduction in employment demand but an increase in real wages. We extend beyond the initial estimations provided by the Congressional Budget Office\, which projected $393 billion in tax credits\, by simulating two additional scenarios: 1) accounting for the uncapped effect of tax credits\, considering that private investment announcements resulting from the IRA already exceed the $393 billion threshold in the first year of implementation; and 2) exploring an alternative funding approach through taxes on workers. 	About the Speakers: 	María C. Latorre is Associate Professor at Universidad Complutense of Madrid (Spain) and Member of the Group of Experts in Trade of the European Commission. She is Co-chair of the research groups in Data Science and Global Governance both from Real Colegio Complutense (RCC) at Harvard University and Research Fellow from this institution. She leads the “Una Europa Global Governance Research Group.” 	David Suárez-Cuesta is a Faculty Member at Universidad Complutense of Madrid (Spain) and Project Operation Manager of the Global Governance Research Group and Member of the Study Group in Data Science from RCC at Harvard University.

SUMMARY:Research Seminar: Unveiling the Latent Structures within the Global Science System
DESCRIPTION:The Growth Lab’s Research Seminar series is a weekly seminar that brings together researchers from across the academic spectrum who share an interest in growth and development. 	Speaker: Lili Miao\, Ph.D. candidate at Indiana University\, School of Informatics\, Computing\, and Engineering 	Location: W434-B / Zoom Whether attending in person or online please register in advance. 	Speaker Bio: Lili Miao is a Ph.D. candidate at Indiana University\, School of Informatics\, Computing\, and Engineering. Her research focuses on applying computational methods to understand the interactions among science\, innovation\, and society. Besides publishing in renowned venues\, her research has served as an integral basis for formulating a pilot program—A National Network for Critical Technology Assessment—funded by the NSF and dedicated to informing U.S. national technology policy. She is a recipient of several awards including the Humane Studies Fellowship from the Institute for Humane Studies and the Best Poster Award at the 1st International Conference on the Science of Science & Innovation. 	Paper Abstract: Science is crucial for innovation and economic prosperity. While numerous studies have investigated the factors influencing national scientific development\, it remains unclear whether universal structures and trajectories exist. Meanwhile\, science is increasingly a global activity\, characterized by the exchange of knowledge\, resources\, and people across national borders. Exchanges\, however\, can often be asymmetrical\, posing risks and costs to global science. Using bibliometric data\, this talk will delve into the underlying structures of national scientific development and examine the impact of global funding and collaboration on national scientific development. The talk will discuss the vicious cycles that hinder the scientific development of developing countries\, the benefits and risks of relying on foreign scientific funding\, and the threats to achieving an equitable global science system. It will conclude with a review of relevant global science policies and recommendations for leveraging large-scale data to formulate and evaluate national and international science policies.
