Tomorrow I am off to Venezia for three days, attending the ESOBE 2016 workshop, where ESOBE stands for European Seminar on Bayesian Econometrics. This year it is indeed taking place in Venezia, Università Ca’ Foscari, in this beautiful building on the Gran Canale, and I have been invited to give a talk. Excited to get back to this unique place, hoping the high water will not be too high to prevent getting around (at random as usual).
6th French Econometrics Conference in Dauphine

On December 4-5, Université Paris-Dauphine will host the 6th French Econometric Conference, which celebrates Christian Gouriéroux and his contributions to econometrics. (Christian was my statistics professor during my graduate years at ENSAE and then Head of CREST when I joined this research unit, first as a PhD student and later as Head of the statistics group. And he has always been a tremendous support for me.)
Not only is the program quite impressive, with co-authors of Christian Gouriéroux and a few Nobel laureates (if not the latest, Jean Tirole, who taught economics at ENSAE when I was a student there), but registration is free. I will most definitely attend the talks, as I am in Paris-Dauphine at this time of year (the week before NIPS). In particular, looking forward to Gallant’s views on Bayesian statistics.
