CALL FOR PAPERS

FIFTEENTH EUROPEAN WORKSHOP ON ECONOMETRICS AND HEALTH 
ECONOMICS               

6-9 September 2006       

Thessaloniki, Greece


Local organiser: Owen O’Donnell (University of Macedonia)
Series organisers: Andrew Jones (University of York) and Owen O'Donnell 
(University of Macedonia)



THE PROGRAMME:

This series of workshops provides a forum for the development and 
dissemination of applications of econometrics and other quantitative 
methods in health economics. 

As in previous years, the number of participants will be limited to around 
45 to avoid the need for parallel sessions. The programme will consist of 
14 papers. Each paper will be allocated an hour, made up of a short 
presentation by the authors, followed by a response from a nominated 
discussant and a general discussion. Papers will be circulated in advance 
and taken as read. Participants will be expected to attend the whole 
meeting and it is hoped that all participants will play a role as author, 
discussant or chairperson. 

This year’s event will be preceeded by a preconference training course 
lead by Professors Badi Baltagi and Pravin Trivedi, as part of the Marie 
Curie Training Programme in Applied Health Economics (see 
www.york.ac.uk/res/herc/APPHEC ).
