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

The NBER research program in Industrial Organization will next meet in Palo Alto on Friday, February 19 and Saturday, February 20, 2010.   The program will begin with lunch on Friday and continue through late Saturday afternoon.  Justine Hastings and Stephen Ryan will organize the meeting.

The IO program meeting solicits papers across a broad range of questions, methods, and applications in industrial organization, with an emphasis on empirical IO.  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 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 Wednesday, January 27.

If you have a paper you would like to present, send a copy of the paper NO LATER THAN FRIDAY, November 20, 2009 to:
                           
                        Nancy Rose <nrose@mit.edu>
                        Justine Hastings <justine.hastings@yale.edu>
                        Stephen Ryan <sryan@mit.edu>
                                          
                    **THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS **
                                **   Friday, November 20, 2009 **

Authors of papers selected for the program will be notified by December 21.  While we have space for only a small fraction of  submissions we receive, we give each our careful consideration. 

Please forward this call to others, especially junior faculty, who might have papers suitable for this meeting.  We try to be inclusive, but don't have every e-mail on our distribution list, and we count on your help to get the word out.   Researchers may self-subscribe to this call for papers distribution list at:
