I’ve been noting dates and planning to attend numerous online Economics seminars. They’re hosted by different organizations, so I’ve compiled a list (available below, with links). This is maybe one of the better things to have come out of this virus.
On a side note, I’ve penciled in some time to study for my Industrial Organization and Behavioral Public Policy finals, and probably will be posting notes on the papers covered in the syllabus or related papers so I can revise and prepare. Excited for my exams to end so I can focus entirely on reading more new papers!
(Update: I’ve been told that the formatting for this table is a bit wonky on mobile platforms. It’s best viewed on desktop!)
