CALL FOR
PAPERS************************
*********************************************************************************
The NBER research program in Industrial Organization will next meet at
the NBER Summer Institute on Friday, July 20 and Saturday, July 21 (note
the shift in days for this year). The program will host with a
roundtable industry discussion on the pharmaceutical industry on Friday
morning. The research meeting will begin on Friday, following
lunch, and continue through Saturday afternoon. Steve Berry and
Fiona Scott Morton will organize the program meeting.
For the IO program meeting, we solicit papers across a broad range of
questions, methods, and applications in industrial organization.
Our ideal is research at the working paper stage. We will follow
our usual program meeting format: Discussants will take about 25 minutes
to summarize and critique the paper; authors will be given about 10-15
minutes to add their remarks, and the remaining 30 minutes or so will be
devoted to discussion from the floor. To ensure that completed
papers are available for distribution, we will decide the program based
primarily on submissions of draft papers. These are the papers that
will be posted for participants unless a revised version is received by
the NBER conference department by Friday, June 30..
If you have a paper you would like to present, please send a copy of
the paper (preferred) or a detailed abstract NO LATER THAN FRIDAY, APRIL
20. Electronic submissions should be sent to:
Nancy Rose
<nrose@mit.edu>
Steven Berry
<steven.berry@yale.edu>
Fiona Scott
Morton
<fiona.scottmorton@yale.edu>
**THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS **
** FRIDAY, APRIL 20 **
Authors of papers selected for the program will be notified by May
15.
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 to
get the word out! While we have space for only a fraction of the
submissions, we give each our careful consideration.
Thanks!
Nancy L. Rose
IO Program Director
