Cambridgeに着いて、一週間が経過。
今週からぼちぼちセミナーに行きだした。
セミナーのAudienceのレベルが高いので、鋭い質問も多い。

とりあえず、抱えている論文を早く終わらせて、新しい研究テーマに取り掛かることが目先の課題。

Call for Papersのメールが来たので、お知らせ。

CALL FOR PAPERS: NBER/BREAD CONFERENCE
NBER, Cambridge, Mass, 24-25 September 2010

On September 24 and 25, 2010, the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), in conjunction with the Bureau for Research and Economic Analysis of Development (BREAD), will host an NBER Universities Research Conference on the theme of "Economic Development." This conference will be the 18th BREAD conference. The NBER will host the conference in Cambridge, Mass.

You are invited to submit a paper for the conference. The deadline for submissions is 12 July, 2010. Please submit your papers at
http://ipl.econ.duke.edu/bread/conferences/submit .

The scientific committee for this conference is Ted Miguel (Berkeley, BREAD and NBER) and Rohini Pande (Harvard, BREAD and NBER). All papers presented at the conference will be selected through this open submissions process. Please note that there will be time for only a very small number of presentations. The conference lasts about a day and a half, there are no parallel sessions, and ample time is allowed for discussion of the research during the presentations. The NBER will cover travel and hotel expenses for one author per paper that is presented in the conference.

If you have any questions or concerns, please email BREAD@duke.edu .

NEUDC：
Dear Fellow Economists,

MIT will be hosting the 2010 NEUDC (Northeast Universities Development Consortium) Conference on November 6th and 7th, 2010.

I am writing to invite you to submit a paper for this conference and also to pass the word around among your colleagues and students who may be interested. We welcome all papers that investigate topics in economic development.

The final date for submitting a paper is August 2nd 2010. Only full drafts of papers will be considered. Please submit a paper with an abstract not exceeding 300 words for this August 2nd deadline. We will send out notifications by late September informing people of our acceptance and rejection decisions.

Those attending the meeting will be charged a registration fee of $120 (for students there will be a special rate of $90) for timely registrations. The registration will include breakfast, lunches, coffee and Saturday’s conference dinner. The speakers will have to bear their own expense for travel and accommodation.
