SIRE Young Researchers Forum
The SIRE Forum for Young Researchers (SFYR) brings together young researchers from across Scotland and across all of the research areas encompassed by SIRE to meet and discuss economics research. The aim is to develop a shared understanding of what research they are each doing, and foster the development of joint research. Each meeting will consist in a half-a-day event with presentations given by junior researchers from Scottish universities and one presentation by an internationally recognized senior researcher.
The location of these meetings rotates around the participating universities, with the next two meetings organised by the University of Aberdeen. The forum is jointly sponsored by SIRE and the University of Aberdeen Business School. Juergen Bracht (juergen.bracht@abdn.ac.uk) will make the practical arrangements.
