NBER: Nominations
>Dear NBER Family Members -
>
>I am writing to ask for your help in identifying promising young
>faculty members who are strong candidates to join the NBER as
>Faculty Research Fellows (FRFs). If you know of a colleague, former
>student, or other researcher who is doing interesting empirical
>research that fits broadly within the scope of one of the Bureau's
>research programs, and whose primary affiliation is with a North
>American college or university, I hope that you will nominate that
>person for NBER affiliation. Please send your nominee's name,
>potential program affiliation, current c.v., and a one- or
>two-paragraph nomination statement to Denis Healy
>(dhealy_at_nber.org). While virtually all NBER appointments are made
>at the FRF rank, if you think there is a senior researcher who
>should be considered for a Research Associate appointment, such a
>nomination would also be welcome. A Research Associate candidate
>must have tenure at his or her home institution; Faculty Research
>Fellow nominees are generally not tenured. Please indicate in your
>nomination materials whether your candidate should be considered for
>a FRF or an RA appointment. The NBER encourages nominations of
>candidates from under-represented groups including women and
>minorities, and I hope that you will devote particular effort to
>identifying and nominating such researchers. Nominations are
>reviewed by NBER program directors, usually in consultation with
>steering committees for each program. Your nominations must be
>received by Wednesday, February 3, 2010 in order to be considered in
>this year's review cycle. If you are interested in checking on
>whether a potential candidate is already associated with the NBER,
>you can search for them at the "People" tab on the NBER website, or
>review the complete alphabetical listing of current NBER affiliates
>at www.nber.org/vitae.html.
>
>The strength and vitality of the NBER depends critically on the
>quality of our research "family," so I hope that you will think
>seriously about promising young researchers who have the potential
>to play an active role in the NBER. If you have any questions about
>the nomination process, please do not hesitate to contact Denis
>Healy at (dhealy_at_nber.org or 617-588-0312). I appreciate your
>attention to this important process, and I look forward to receiving
>your nominations. All best wishes.
>
>Jim
