Datum: 01.-02.08.2015
International Conference on
"Frontiers of Theoretical Econometrics"
In celebration of Prof. Don Andrews' (Yale University) 60th birthday 80 leading Econometricians from around the world come together at Konstanz University for a one and half day long conference to exchange new ideas in theoretical Econometrics. In 16 presentations and in two poster sessions cutting edge research is presented spanning a wide range of topics in Econometrics on estimation, inference, and forecasting in point and partially identified models that cover cross sectional, time series, and panel data.
