We welcome faculty members and graduate students interested in behavioral science to join our BEE (Behavioral and Experimental Economics) lab meetings and/or present their work. We accept presentations of ongoing projects and other research-related activities at any stage, including:
- a new research idea
- a new design for a study
- a pilot study design and data
- a problem one is stuck on (design or data analysis, a response to a referee)
- a practice job/conference talk
- a final presentation and read of one’s paper with feedback before submission.
- or for something completely different, e.g., a grant that one is submitting and want feedback!
Our weekly lab meetings take place on Wednesday, 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm in-person at NQ 4430. In the rare event of a presenter who is not on-campus, we will meet on Zoom. To attend the BEE lab meetings and stay up to date about upcoming presentations, please fill the registration form to join our mailing list. Also, please join our Slack channel through this invitation link.
If you are interested to present, please find an empty slot in the schedule mentioned below and mail me to confrim your slot.
We are grateful for financial support from the Rackham Graduate School.
