10th Young Scholars Workshop in Behavioral Economics and Experimental Research

June 30, 2023

Christian Zehnder

Prof. Christian Zehnder, UNIL

Prof. Holger Herz, UNIFR

Prof. Michael Powell, (Kellogg School of Management)

This year the workshop will take place right after the summer school and in the same location (hotel Alfa Soleil in Kandersteg) and participants are encouraged to subscribe to both events, because the timing foreseen in the program ensures a perfectly smooth transition from the summer school to the workshop. However it is also possible to only participate in one of the two events.

If you want to participate in both events, please make sure you sign up for the summer school + the workshop. 

The workshop offers participants the chance to present projects at any stage of progress (project ideas, research designs, completed projects).

If you would like to present at the workshop, please submit a title and abstract to Bénédicte Moreira ([email protected]) 

Submission deadline: May 30, 2023

Of course it is also possible to participate in the workshop without presenting a paper.

At the end of the workshop, Michael Powell will deliver a keynote address.

Kandersteg

Participants will be hosted at:

Hôtel Alfa Soleil

For students of the CUSO universities (Geneva, Lausanne, Neuchâtel, and Fribourg), IHEID and the University of Bern, expenses for accommodation and meals are covered by the CUSO. Travel expenses will be reimbursed based on a second-class half-fare return Swiss rail ticket between the university to which the student is attached and the location of the activity (also valid for travel in a private car).
