>To summarize, on March 5th the NBER will hold a tutorial about the

>exciting and growing field, and let them meet others with a shared interest.

>A copy of the announcement is reproduced below. Please forward the

>The NBER project on the Economics of Digitization will hold a
>meeting on March 5 and 6, 2015. The first day of the meeting will
>involve a digitization tutorial for economics graduate students. The
>tutorial will introduce graduate students to overviews of this young
>frontier area of research. The second day of the meeting will
>involve presentation of frontier research by six researchers and
>discussants, as part of the winter meetings of the NBER digitization
>group. These two days will give graduate students exposure to a
>sampling of frontier research in this area. The meetings will be
>held at the facilities of the Stanford Institute of Economic Policy
>Research at Stanford University.
>
>The meetings will expose economics graduate students to this young
>and growing community, and enables them to have face-to-face time
>with research leaders. It also brings together like-minded
>researchers to share frontier research, and contributes to building
>the foundations for this community of scholars in this
>policy-relevant area. The tutorial seeks to accelerate the
>development of a research community, and seed the interests of a new
>generation of researchers.
>
>The National Science Foundation has generously funded two nights of
>hotel and living expenses for twenty graduate students at the
>meeting. Students must cover their own travel expenses.
>
>To apply students should send an application with the following:
>- Please provide contact information, including email.
>- Please provide a short description of the course of study
>pursued during graduate work, including the type of course work
>pursued, major and minor focus of study, year of advance, and so on.
>- Please provide a short description of general research interests
>or other projects pursued. If the student has proposed a
>dissertation, and formed a committee, please provide a short
>description, expected date of completion, and general details.
>
>The application should not exceed two pages. Please send
>applications electronically to: Denis Healy,
