Conference Overview
This inaugural conference is dedicated to fostering collaboration and discussion among early-career researchers in microeconomic theory and behavioral economics. The event will include keynote talks from Dorothea Kübler (WZB, TU Berlin) and Paul Heidhues (Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf), along with opportunities for networking, peer feedback, and academic exchange in a welcoming setting.
Call for Submissions
Current PhD students are invited to submit single-authored research or work with junior co-authors only (no co-author with a PhD before October 2020). Submissions may be full papers or extended abstracts (up to three pages), with early-stage research encouraged.
Key Dates
Selected speakers will present their research in 30-minute slots, followed by structured feedback sessions: each presentation will include a 5-minute discussion led by PhD students or postdocs from the Berlin School of Economics and a 10-minute audience Q&A. All presentations will be scheduled consecutively, with no parallel sessions to encourage full participation and engagement.
Note: Students of the Berlin School of Economics or affiliated institutions are welcome to apply and will be featured in a dedicated poster session.
