To all PhD students and advisors--experimental finance summer school is on--and we are hoping for a very selective group of students/postdocs/junior faculty wanting to learn about experimental methods in Finance. Instruction comes from Stefan Nagel, Sebastien Pouget, Mark DeSantis and Felix Holzmeister! Zwetelina Iliewa and I will also be around and so will be other seasoned experimental finance researchers, available to interact with students. We are planning on an exciting and very hands-on experience that should extend well beyond the two days of the school.

ULEEF together with the Society of Experimental Finance hosted the 2020 SEF North American Meetings! The event was a success, if only judging by the number of people asking when again! This was two days of most insightful talks, debates, socials, and great support of our endeavor to bring experiments closer to the core of finance. A big thank you to the David Eccles School of Business, Rand Labs, Whitehall Ventures, and the Marriner Eccles Institute!

We have been having fun running dark markets experiments. Paper #1 is out, the second one is starting to make rounds--and Wenhao Yang is the chosen presenter.

How prices are determined in 'dark' financial markets Contrary to intuition, decentralized trading of financial instruments may not stand in the way of effective aggregation of information and price formation.
