The 2005 JAE Lectures will be given by Professor John F. Geweke of the University of Iowa. The JAE Lecture Series was launched in 1997 in a move to help promote applied econometrics.

The two-day conference is organized jointly by Professors Monica Billio and Domenico Sartore of the Università Ca' Foscari di Venezia and Professor Tim Bollerslev of Duke University. The organizes are happy to announce that Professor Robert F.

The conference organizers encourage submissions of papers on any topic within this overall theme with a particular emphasis on the following areas:
