Part of the goal of BEACH is to bring together researchers working in Economics and Computing in the Boston area across disciplines and institutions together. To this end, we hold semesterly workshops called "BEACH Day"s on focused topics in Economics and Computing. See previous and future workshops below. Return home for more details about our calendar, mailing list, researchers, and other resources.
Join us for our third BEACH Day this April 10! Our topic will be Strategic Communication and Information Design at Boston College, organized by Maneesha Papireddygari, Gili Rusak, Francisco Marmolejo-Cossio, and Jess Finocchiaro. The schedule will include a mixture of hour-long bootcamp-style talks and shorter half-hour talks on recent work. Breakfast and lunch will be served.
Location: The workshop will take place in the Schiller Convening Space (Room 501) at 245 Beacon St Chestnut Hill, MA 02467
