Hi Everyone:
Hope all is well with all. We are writing with an announcement and some
reminders...
First, please join us in welcoming new members to the NBER EEE
program: *Susanna
Berkouwer (Wharton), Erica Myers (University of Calgary), and Will Rafey
(UCLA). Elaine Hill (Rochester),* who was already affiliated with the
health economics group, has also joined our EEE group. Welcome all!
Some reminders:
- We are looking forward to the 2023 NBER Summer Institute. Thanks to
Tamma Carleton and Matthew Kotchen for organizing this meeting on July
24-25. We hope to see many of you there. You should have received an email
from Jim Poterba asking you to nominate students who are completing their
Ph.Ds this year or going on the job market next year. We expect that
nominations will exceed the space available. Acceptances will be
randomized. The nomination deadline is *Monday May 8.* To nominate a
student, please visit this webpage:
http://back.nber.org/nominate/backend/form?id=N_G23
- A reminder about the NBER conference on the distributional impacts of
climate change in the agricultural sector which is being convened with the
generous support of the Economic Research Service at the US Department of
Agriculture. The organizers welcome submissions of both empirical and
theoretical research. The deadline to submit your work is *June 15.
*Complete
papers are preferred, but extended abstracts can also be submitted. The
event webpage:

- Finally, a reminder to please consider running your NSF, NIH, or other
research grants through the NBER. The NBER grant support team handles the
budget and paperwork; you just write the proposal! In addition to very
efficient administration, the NBER typically provides better retirement
contributions (e.g. a larger fraction of your summer salary into your
401(k) or 403(b) account) than other grant-hosting venues. It is also very
flexible when there are multiple NBER researchers on a project from
different universities. Administering grants through the NBER also provides
overhead revenues that support the NBER's activities.
Thanks!
