************************ CALL FOR PAPERS************************
*********************************************************************************
The NBER research program in Industrial Organization will next meet in
in the SIEPR Koret-Taube conference room on the Stanford campus,
beginning with lunch at noon on Friday, February 10 and concluding
Saturday, February 11, 2012, by 5 p.m. Tim Bresnahan and Jakub Kastl
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 January 15, 2012_.
*If you have a paper you would like to present, please upload a copy at *

***THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS **
** Friday, November 18, 2011 **
*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 the
call for papers distribution list at:
