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

The NBER research program in Industrial Organization will next meet at the NBER Summer Institute in Cambridge, MA, on Monday, August 1 and Tuesday, August 2, 2011.  Meghan Busse and Kate Ho will organize the program 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 JULY 8.  Please do not submit for the summer meeting if you anticipate any problem meeting the July 8 deadline for public posting of a final version.

If you have a paper you would like to present, send a copy of the paper NO LATER THAN Friday, April 29, 2011 to:

http://www.nber.org/confsubmit/backend/cfp?id=SI11IO

                           **THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS **
                                **   Friday, April 29, 2011 **

Authors of papers selected for the program will be notified by June 1.  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.   To further that goal, researchers may self-subscribe to future e-mails from our IO Call for Papers distribution list at:  http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/nber_io_calls
