workshop

In 2010s  I was organizing regular research workshops in labour economics. The idea of these workshops was to provide a platform for discussion of new research avenues and recent theoretical and empirical advances in the field. Emphasis was typically placed at, yet not limited to, search and matching theory and/or structural econometrics.

From 2010 till 2016 workshops were organized at the University of Mainz (jointly with Klaus Wälde). From 2017 they continued at the University of Kent (organized jointly with Amanda Gosling). In 2013 I was a local co-organizer of the 3rd European Search and Matching Network Conference.
