It allows research expenditures and trips that would otherwise be impossible. We deeply thank Yoshio and all who have contributed. Here\u2019s what happened last year:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Scott Drewianka \u2013 I was pleased to be able to upgrade my computer at a time when the University could not.&nbsp; I was also able to renew my statistical software license.&nbsp; These were both critical to continuing research and I thank the Fund.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Kundan Kishor \u2013 The Niho Research Fund award allowed me to present \u201c(In)Stability of the Relationship between Relative Expenditure and Prices of Durable and Non-durable Goods&#8221; at the Delhi Macroeconomics Group meeting in Delhi in March 2023. I&#8217;m grateful for this valuable opportunity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Itziar Lazkano \u2013 The Niho Fund sponsored my participation in the Annual Meeting of the Association of Environmental and Resource Economists.&nbsp;I presented joint work with a 51ÁÔÆæ graduate student, \u201cIs the Shale Gas Revolution Good for Green Innovation?\u201d.&nbsp; It was a great opportunity to get critical feedback and meet with experts in my field.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rebecca Neumann \u2013 A Fulbright student of mine here at 51ÁÔÆæ, Noureddine Echcharfi, completed his PhD at the University of Rabat this March. An advisor on his dissertation, I was able to both attend the defense in Morocco and continue our joint research. A fabulous experience thanks to the support of the Niho Fund.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Kevin Thom \u2013 The Niho Fund permitted a colleague from the University of Southern California to visit 51ÁÔÆæ which was great.&nbsp; In addition to discussing joint research, she presented a seminar to the faculty.&nbsp; I appreciate the opportunity provided by the Fund.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We would love to have your support of the&nbsp;<strong>Yoshio Niho Excellence Fund (#4626)<\/strong>&nbsp;as we work to raise the research profile of the department.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.give.uwm.edu\/s\/1902\/m19\/home-dev.aspx?gid=3&amp;pgid=61\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Give here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Department greatly benefits from the Niho Research Excellence Fund.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1483,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","uwm_wg_additional_authors":[]},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8989","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
