This workshop offers an opportunity for PhD students working in macroeconomics to:

• present their early-stage and advanced research projects for peer feedback

• get to know and network with other PhD students working in macroeconomics. 

The workshop allows for longer presentations of 30 minutes (including questions) and shorter lightning sessions of 15 minutes for early-stage work. 

There are no registration fees and lunch is provided free of charge. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide any financial support towards travel and accommodation expenses.

As the primary goal of the workshop is to get to know colleagues working in similar areas, we also welcome attendance of non-presenters subject to prior registration. 

Submissions for the 2026 edition are not yet open. Once they are, please use the link below to submit.

Please submit your papers by the deadline on 15 August 2026 (23:59 UK time) using the submission form HERE. 

We invite submissions on any topic in macroeconomics. 

• For a 30-minute presentation slot, we ask for submission of a full draft. 

• For a lightning session slot, we also welcome the submission of an extended abstract (2-5 pages). 

Please indicate your preference in the form. Acceptance decisions will be sent in September 2026 and we ask for registration by the end of September.
