Differences in Financial Risk Preferences Can Make or Break a Marriage
Couples who disagree on savings and investment decisions are twice as likely to divorce, according to new UC San Diego research While it is well known that fighting over money can lead couples to divorce court, new research from the University of California San Diego's Rady School of Management finds that differences in risk preferences, especially when it comes to financial matters, are likely a root cause of marital separation.

Researcher advances strategy to manage fisheries
Renato Molina, assistant professor, explores how transboundary marine protected areas can lead to greater fisheries cooperation between countries. With its bulging eyes and relatively unimpressive shape, the Peruvian anchoveta probably wouldn't win any beauty contests for marine life. In the category of fisheries, however, the small aquatic creature is unbeatable, reproducing at a remarkable rate and yielding catches larger than any other single wild fish species in the world.

Black, Hispanic populations among hardest hit by COVID-19, according to U-M research
Deaths from all causes combined increased dramatically early in the COVID-19 pandemic for certain demographic groups in the U.S.-particularly for Black and Hispanic people, even when accounting for socioeconomic factors, according to new University of Michigan research. In fact, the study-which focused on groups of adults under age 65-found the wealthiest non-Hispanic Black residents had a higher increase in mortality than the poorest non-Hispanic white people.

Women economists underrepresented ’at every level’ in UK academia - report
New research shows the gender gap in the teaching and study of economics is still dramatic and actually getting worse. Economists argue that this is not just a problem for the discipline, but for society as a whole. Unless economists are diverse, we cannot hope to build a complete understanding of the economy, and, with it, formulate the right kinds of policies Victoria Bateman Women are underrepresented "at almost every level" within the discipline of economics in UK universities, according to a new report co-authored by a Cambridge economist.
