S7 Ep47: Access to opportunity in the sciences
VoxTalks Economics - A podcast by VoxTalks - Fridays
A Nobel season episode: what is the background of the scientists who win the big prize? If talent is equally distributed, but the opportunity to use that talent is not, both individuals and society lose. Paul Novosad and Sam Asher talk to Tim Phillips about the background of the scientists who win the Nobel, and what that tells us about equality of opportunity.
