諾貝爾經(jīng)濟學獎的三位獲得者將捐出他們的獎金，用于資助資助未來15年的經(jīng)濟研究。

Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Michael Kremer, of Harvard University, will donate their prize money to the Weiss Fund for Research in Development Economics, which is administered by Harvard University.

麻省理工學院的Abhijit Banerjee和Esther Duflo以及哈佛大學的Michael Kremer將把他們的獎金捐給哈佛大學管理的Weiss發(fā)展經(jīng)濟學研究基金。

Banerjee, Duflo and Kremer were honored by the Nobel Committee for their research on fighting global poverty.

班納吉、杜弗洛和克萊默因其在消除全球貧困方面的研究而受到諾貝爾委員會的表彰。

“As a child, I read about Marie Curie who used the proceeds of her first Nobel prize to buy a gram of radium to further her research,” said Duflo. “Our field is a collaborative one, so supporting the next generation of economists is our ‘gram of radium.’”

杜弗洛說：“小時候，我讀到瑪麗·居里用她第一個諾貝爾獎的收入買了一克鐳來進一步研究。“我們的領(lǐng)域是一個合作領(lǐng)域，因此支持下一代經(jīng)濟學家就是我們的‘鐳克’。”

The donation of approximately $916,000 will fund development economists and students’ research until 2035, The Boston Globe reported. The Weiss Fund has supported development economics research at select universities in the United States since 2012.
