RE: Summer Institute 2023 - Call for Papers
We are organizing the NBER's Development of the American Economy
Summer Institute Workshop on July 10 through 13, 2023 alongside our
Program Committee, Katherine Eriksson, Martin Fiszbein and Joshua Hausman.
We are planning for an in-person meeting in Cambridge, MA along with
a virtual component on Zoom for those who are unable or choose not to
attend in person. Presenters are encouraged to attend the in-person meeting.
The workshop will also be streamed live on the NBER YouTube Channel.
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 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 11:59 pm (EST) on March 22, 2023
http://www.nber.org/confsubmit/backend/cfp?id=SI23DAE
Submissions need not be completed papers, but full paper submissions
may have an advantage in selection for the 50-minute regular
sessions. 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 feel free to forward this call for papers to colleagues
outside of the DAE program who may have a paper suitable for the
program. Papers by researchers with and without NBER affiliations,
by early career scholars, and by researchers from under-represented
groups, are welcome. Invitations and logistical information will be
sent out in May.
The NBER has a zero-tolerance policy for any form of discrimination
or harassment at both in-person and virtual meetings. All invitees
will be required to agree and comply with the NBER Conference Code of
Conduct. (

If you have questions regarding other aspects of the Summer
Institute, please contact Rob Shannon in the NBER's Conference
Department at rshannon_at_nber.org
We look forward to seeing you all in Cambridge.
