We have several exciting events planned for the month of March, including new Meet a Theory (focused on real options), Meet a Method (focused on theory-empirics fit), virtual symposium (focused on neo-Carnegie scholars) and professional development (focused on research grants) events.
Zoom registration information is available in the links to each virtual event listed below (in addition to being posted on the STR calendar). When the speakers agree, we record these sessions and make them available on our YouTube and BiliBili channels and in podcast form for those unable to attend these events in real time.
Thank you to everyone who reviewed submissions for the STR Division for the August conference in the month of February – we appreciate your time and help.
