****************** CALL FOR PAPERS************
******************************************************

The NBER research program in Industrial Organization will hold its winter program meeting at the Stanford NBER beginning at noon on Friday, February 7 and ending at 5 p.m. on Saturday, February 8, 2003. The program will be organized by Professors Dennis Carlton and Austan Goolsbee.

The I.O. program meeting is used to discuss current research on topics in applied industrial organization. Our ideal is research at the working paper stage. To ensure that completed papers are available for distribution January 15, we will decide the program based primarily on submissions of draft papers. These are the papers that will be circulated to participants unless a revised version is received by the NBER conference department by January 10.

If you have a paper you would like to present, please send a copy of the paper, including a detailed abstract, to the organizers no later than Monday, November 25. Electronic submissions are preferred. These may be sent in PDF or Word format to:

  goolsbee@gsb.uchicago.edu
  dennis.carlton@gsb.uchicago.edu


If you are unable to submit a paper electronically, you may mail hard copies to:

Professor Austan Goolsbee
Graduate School of Business
University of Chicago
1101 E. 58th Street
Chicago, IL 60637



**THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS **
** MONDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2002. **

If you know of others, especially junior faculty, who might have papers suitable for this meeting, please encourage them to submit their papers to us. Not everyone receives an e-mail call; we count on your help to get the word out! While we have space for only a fraction of the submissions, we give each our careful consideration.

Thanks!
