2023 Federal Statistical Research Data Center Annual Research Conference — Call for Papers
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System will host the 2023 Federal Statistical Research Data Center (FSRDC) Annual Research Conference on Friday, September 22, 2023.
The Federal Reserve Board invites proposals to present papers at the 2023 FSRDC Annual Research Conference. The conference will be a day of concurrent paper sessions and a keynote presentation.
Submitted papers should be based on current or recent research using data from the nationwide network of FSRDCs. We welcome research topics in the fields of economics, business and management, demography, health, and developments in data sets. Papers should involve statistical analyses on nonpublic versions of data sets available from the U.S. Census Bureau, the National Center for Health Statistics, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, and other federal statistical agencies.
For paper presentations please submit your paper or an abstract of up to 500 words describing your research question, the data used (including sponsoring agency), methodology, and summary of results. Results can be anticipated or preliminary if they are not yet finalized. As a reminder, results need to have undergone disclosure avoidance review and must be approved for release. The abstract should include a presentation title and a list of all authors and their affiliations. Also, please provide an email address for the contact author.
Submit the paper or abstract and other requested information to RDC-Conference-2023@frb.gov.
Deadline for submissions is Friday, June 23, 2023. Notices of acceptance will be sent by Friday, July 14, 2023.
Please feel free to distribute this call for papers to other colleagues who may be interested.
