CORE Week
The Collaboration of Research Economists (CORE) model combines frontier research and an innovative delivery method to advance collaboration within the economics profession.
The CORE model consists of eight CORE Weeks per year. During each week, visiting economists from a range of disciplines will join with Richmond Fed economists for seminars, conferences, and formal and informal networking and collaboration — all with an eye toward advancing economic research.
The February installment of CORE Week featured 9 visiting economists who shared research findings about a variety of topics, all outlined below. Topical focus areas ranged from theories on relationship lending and credit markets to inflation and wage rigidity. Explore more in depth CORE Week content on the event series page.
