Past Workshop
Richmond Fed-UVA-Duke Research Workshop
A joint workshop between the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, the University of Virginia, and Duke University that brings together researchers, faculty and students to share on-going research work at various stages.
This workshop takes place twice per year on a rotating basis across the three institutions. It began in 2014 as a collaboration between the Richmond Fed and UVA. The workshop brings together researchers, faculty and students to share on-going work in a relaxed setting that facilitates informal discussions and feedback. We encourage presentations of research at various stages of progress, from preliminary work to completed working papers. The 2021 Fall Workshop is part of the Richmond Fed’s inaugural CORE Week.
