New Paper Sessions 2021

Leiden University will be hosting the third edition of the New Paper Sessions for economists on 18 June 2021 from 12:30-18:00. This initiative by the Royal Dutch Economic Association KVS aims to create a platform where economists in the Netherlands can obtain valuable feedback on their research.

This year there will be keynote lectures by Peter Koudijs and Sigrid Suetens.

The New Paper Sessions will take place on the  campus of Leiden Univerisity in the city center of The Hague as well as in an online environment, using the software Zoom.

Programme

Peter Koudijs is Professor of Finance and History at Erasmus School of Economics. Before joining Erasmus University last year, he worked for almost ten years at Stanford University, first as an Assistant Professor and then as an Associate Professor in Finance. Peter will talk about historical insights into limited liability, which is also the theme of two major grants he recently received -- the NWO Vidi grant and an ERC Consolidator grant.

Sigrid Suetens is Professor of Economics at Tilburg University. She is a well-known expert in the areas of behavioral and experimental economics. In her most recent work, she studies people's attitudes towards immigrants and how these attitudes change in response to exposure to diversity. This is also the theme of her talk. She recently received an ERC Consoloditor grant for this line of research.
