Cemmap training courses run over two or three consecutive days in a state-of-the-art microeconometrics laboratory at the Department of Economics, University College London. The courses are designed to be of particular benefit to economists and social scientists in the public and private sectors wanting to know how to use microeconometrics and microdata to inform policy making.

Matching and sorting: theory and applications (a cemmap / ANR conference)


Date:	16 Apr 2010 09:00 - 17 Apr 2010 17:00

Venue:	Sciences Po, Paris, Leroy-Beaulieu - 3rd Floor, 27 rue Saint Guillaume - 75007 Paris
Rates:	Free of charge
Programme:	Download programme

Who matches with whom? When are matching markets efficient? Who benefits from different market designs? How do matching market structures affect sorting based on both observables and unobservables? How important are frictions in different market settings? What are the implications for empirical research and for policy?

Both theoretical and empirical matching models seek to provide answers to these questions in applications ranging from the matching of buyers with sellers or firms with workers to the matching of husbands with wives.

This conference aims to bring together researchers on multiple aspects of these questions to present recent findings, share ideas, and spark discussion.
