Subject: Extended Submission deadlines for AEA 2021 meetings

In light of the many life changes being experienced by members as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, the deadlines for submissions to be considered for the January 2021 AEA Meeting program in Chicago have been extended to April 15, 2020 for individual papers and April 30, 2020 for complete sessions. The submission portal is open at https://www.aeaweb.org/conference/submissions.

New links to online resources and research seminars. As colleges and universities transition to online instruction, the AEA has compiled a set of links to resources including teaching tips, advice, and free online economic courses at https://www.aeaweb.org/resources/teachers/online-ed. Many universities and consortia also hold online research seminars that are open to interested economists, and a partial list is now available at https://www.aeaweb.org/resources/online-seminars. If you know of other resources or seminars that may be valuable additions to these lists, please bring them to the AEA’s attention at notify@aeaweb.org.
