Long Run Returns to Education: Does Schooling Lead to an Extended Old Age?
TL;DR: A Dutch compulsory schooling law is exploited to estimate the causal effect of education on mortality, finding that the reform provides a powerful instrument, significantly raising years of schooling, which has a significant and robust negative effect on mortality.

Long-Term and Spillover Effects of Health Shocks on Employment and Income
TL;DR: This work uses matching combined with difference-in-differences to identify the causal effects of sudden illness, represented by acute hospitalizations, on employment and income up to six years after the health shock using linked Dutch hospital and tax register data.
