General Information
Friedrich Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) and the Institute for Employment Research (IAB), as part of the Ensuring Economic and Employment Stability (EES) network, organize a workshop to be held in person in Nürnberg at the IAB on June 17th – 18th, 2026.
We are delighted that AyÅŸegül Åžahin (Princeton University) and Benjamin Schoefer (UC Berkeley) have kindly agreed to deliver the keynote speeches.
The workshop aims to bring together high-quality research that is at the intersection of labor economics and macroeconomics. We invite researchers to submit empirical and theoretical contributions related to labor market topics such as business cycle dynamics, labor market frictions, vacancies, matching, and wage dynamics. We especially welcome work based on innovative, large-scale micro-data.
