RE: Call for Papers, Joint CRIW-NBER Summer Institute Session
The NBER and CRIW are continuing an initiative whose goal is to increase
further the professional interactions among producers and users of
government economic statistics.
To that end, in summer 2006 the NBER's Productivity Program and the CRIW
will jointly sponsor two workshops. On Monday, July 17 we will hold a
one-day workshop on services prices. The usual joint NBER/CRIW workshop
will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday, July 18 and 19. We plan to have 5-6
papers each day, with a discussant presenting each paper. All interested
researchers are encouraged to visit the NBER website at www.nber.org/CRIW
to obtain further information.
The purpose of this memo is to invite you to submit proposed papers to all
workshop organizers (Ernst Berndt - eberndt@mit.edu, Carol Corrado -
carol.a.corrado@frb.gov and Charles Hulten - hulten@econ.umd.edu) no later
than March 24, 2005. Please send your papers/detailed abstracts in PDF
format or in a format readable by Word.
Travel expenses for presenters and discussants will be reimbursed in
accordance with the NBER travel guidelines. However, due to budget
constraints, expenses for other participants cannot be covered. The NBER
Conference Department will assist in making lodging and other logistical
arrangements. Invitations will be sent out in April.
If you have any questions, please contact Rob Shannon in the NBER's
Conference Department at 617/868-3900, fax 617/864-1825, or email
rshannon@nber.org.
