Conference Review 5: Economic Science Association (ESA) Europe meeting in Helsinki

This one is for the experimental economists. Fanny shares her experience attending the Economic Science Association’s European Meeting in Helsinki in September 2024. This was Fanny's first experience attending a non-health conference. Listen to find out why the conference is worth attending if you run experiments. The next European meeting will take place in Brno, Czech Republic from Wednesday 3 September until Saturday 6 September 2025. Find out more about the conference by clicking this link. Deadline for submitting an abstract is 5th May.  Also, this episode was recorded back in October 2024, which is before we had a proper studio. Therefore, this episode has rougher audio than in our latest episodes. Thanks for your patience with the sound quality!
