The event was supported by the Alumni Association of Tsinghua in France and was held at the Consulate Residence in Shanghai. Nearly 80 guests attended the ceremony.
The “Qidi” award was created by the Alumni Association of Tongji in France and honors two female scientists or engineers annually who have contributed to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set by the United Nations member states in 2015. This distinction honors Professor WU Qidi, former president of Tongji University and former vice-minister of Chinese education, recognized for her work in fostering Franco-Chinese cooperation in the field of education. One of the main objectives of the award is to highlight female scientists and engineers and promote examples of female success to inspire young girls.
The 2023 Qidi Award winners were chosen from 11 candidates from 9 countries by a jury chaired by Professor WU Qidi. The award recipients are Professor Xiaoying Zhuang from Leibniz Universität Hannover in Germany and Tongji University in China, and Professor Patricia Crifo from École Polytechnique in Paris, recognized for their exceptional contributions to research and teaching.
At the ceremony, Professor Wu Qidi spoke and personally presented the awards to the two laureates. The Consul General of France in Shanghai, Mr. Joan Valadou, the Vice President of Innovation for Asia at Saint-Gobain, Mr. Alain Zanoli, and the representative of the Fondation de France, Mr. Julien-Loïc Garin, offered their congratulations to the laureates, emphasizing the importance of strengthening Franco-Chinese relations in scientific, technological, and educational fields and providing more opportunities for women in these sectors.

“The transmission of Monetary Policy Shocks” by Silvia Miranda-Agrippino and Giovanni Ricco – 13(3), (pp. 74-107) July 2021
Commonly used instruments for the identification of monetary policy disturbances are likely to combine the true policy shock with information about the state of the economy due to the information disclosed through the policy action. We show that this signaling effect of monetary policy can give rise to the empirical puzzles reported in the literature, and propose a new high-frequency instrument for monetary policy shocks that accounts for informational rigidities. We find that a monetary tightening is unequivocally contractionary, with deterioration of domestic demand, labor and credit market conditions as well as of asset prices and agents’ expectations.

Clément Malgouyres, recipient of the CNRS Bronze Medal 2024
The CNRS Bronze Medal
The CNRS Bronze Medal is an award presented by the French National Center for Scientific Research (Centre national de la recherche scientifique or CNRS). It honors researchers for the originality, quality, and significance of their work, typically within the early years of their career. It represents a significant acknowledgment in the field of scientific research.
Clément Malgouyres, recipient of the 2024 CNRS Bronze Medal
Clément Malgouyres is a research associate at CNRS and an economist at CREST, a member of the Polytechnic Institute of Paris. He is also a research affiliate at the Institute of Public Policy. He defended his thesis in 2016 at the European University Institute.
His work encompasses labor economics, public economics, and international economics. He explores the interactions between public policies and corporate behavior, with a particular focus on business and entrepreneur taxation, as well as the role of companies in labor market dynamics
In a recent article (Bergeaud et al., 2023), Clément and his co-authors investigate the effects of public research on companies’ R&D efforts, comparing the relative effectiveness of various public innovation support policies. Other recent works focus on measuring the progressivity of the tax system, improving the measurement of income and business assets (Bach et al., 2023). Finally, he examines the effectiveness of incentive policies for greening the fleet of passenger vehicles through a bonus/malus system.
