    TO: NBER Development of the American Economy Program Members
    FROM: Leah Platt Boustan and William Collins
    DATE: February 7, 2018
    RE: Summer Institute 2018- Call for Papers
    
    It is that time of year when we start planning for the NBER Summer
    Institute. The Development of the American Economy workshop will take
    place from July 23 - 26, 2018 at the NBER's office, 1050
    Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge, MA. Please note that DAE will be
    held later in July than usual this year to help coordinate travel
    with the World Economic History Congress, which is being held in
    Boston this year.
    
    Walker Hanlon, Matt Jaremski, and Petra Moser have kindly agreed to
    organize this year's DAE SI program. As always, we would like to
    have a range of topics covered. This year we are organizing two types
    of sessions:
    
    1) Regular sessions (50 minute presentations)
    
    2) Egg-timer sessions (10 minute presentations without Q&A). The
    egg-timer sessions were introduced recently and have been well
    received. They are a good way to provide more people with an
    opportunity to showcase their work. Time limits will be strictly enforced.
    
    You can apply for either or both sessions. If you have a paper that
    you would like to present, please upload a copy of your paper,
    proposal or detailed abstract here by March 19, 2018: [see original message or NBER website]
     
    Submissions need not be completed papers. Please note in the
    comments section of the submission page if you would like your paper
    considered specifically for the egg-timer session (rather than a
    50-minute session). All papers that are not selected for a 50-minute
    session will be considered for egg-timer sessions.
    
    You should also feel free to suggest interesting papers by those
    outside the DAE program, especially those by junior colleagues who
    might benefit from exposure to the NBER (and vice versa). Invitations
    and logistical information will be sent out by early May.
    
    If you have questions regarding other aspects of the Summer
    Institute, please contact Rob Shannon in the NBER's Conference
    Department, 617/868-3900 or rshannon_at_nber.org We look forward to
    seeing you all in Cambridge.
