Who:
The reading group is open to active researchers, from young, enthusiastic research master students to less young but equally enthusiastic faculty members… The idea is for us to commit to read and discuss papers at the frontier of research (recently published or in working paper format).
Commitment:
We expect all group members to commit to attend all meetings and have read the papers ahead of the meeting.
RM and PhD students in the field are expected to participate.
Everyone presents at least once.
Presentation:
Presentation of the main result / mechanics of the model on white board. Slides are not used. (45 minutes)
Discussion of the relevance and contribution of the paper (15-30 minutes)
Organizers:
Cédric Argenton, Jan Boone, Florian Schuett and Bert Willems
