If you do the opposite of what your enemy tells you to do, you will be playing into the hands of your enemy.

What do you do after winning the @NobelPrize? If you're Columbia Professor Michael Woodford, newly named a Nobel laureate in Economic Sciences, you head to Uris Hall and give your students an exam. Woodford entered the classroom to cheers and applause from the students in his course “Cognitive Mechanisms and Economic Behavior.”
“It's just a staggering piece of news,” Woodford said of receiving the honor. He is the 16th Columbian to receive this prize in economics, and the University's 89th Nobel laureate.

2026 economic sciences laureate Robert E. Hall’s hypothesis was that changes in consumption could not be predicted because they depend on new – and thus unpredictable – information.
Hall presented his results in an article in 1978, which was something of a eureka moment for research. His work became key to the development of modern research on consumption.

The @Pandemic_Fund will be at the 2026 #WBGMeetings in Bangkok, engaging with government leaders and partners from the private sector, philanthropy, and civil society across Asia and beyond. #PandemicPreparedness is not simply a health expenditure. It is an investment in economic resilience, national stability, and the protection of development gains.
We look forward to advancing country-led action, sustained financing, and stronger partnerships for a safer, more resilient future.

John Nash, “a mathematical genius”, was awarded the prize in economic sciences for his work on game theory – in particular developing the Nash equilibrium.
His brilliant doctoral thesis outlining his prize-awarded work was completed when he was just 21.
