Dube Elected Research Associate of NBER Labor Studies Program

Arindrajit Dube, associate professor of economics, has been elected a research associate of the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) program on labor studies.

NBER is a private, non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to conducting economic research and to disseminating research findings among academics, public policymakers and business professionals.

NBER-affiliated researchers study a wide range of topics and employ many methods in their work. Although NBER research brings critical information to many important public policy debates, the NBER remains impartial and does not make public policy recommendations.

NBER is organized around 20 research programs, each of which consists of scholars whose expertise relates to a common core topic. Most programs meet two or three times each year, including one meeting during the NBER Summer Institute.
