Pension Research Council call for papers

The Pension Research Council and The Boettner Center on Pensions and Retirement Research at the Wharton School have announced a call for papers to be presented at the April 2006 Wharton Symposium.

“We invite researchers to submit proposals for scholarly studies which exploit large microeconomic datasets, particularly the Health and Retirement Study (HRS), to assess how well the Baby Boom cohort compares with previous generations in terms of preparedness for retirement. We seek analyses not only of Boomers as a whole, but also studies that draw out differences between leadingedgevs. later Boomers, in terms of their relative levels of anticipated wellbeing or shortfalls. Junior faculty and post-doctoral fellows are particularly encouraged to submit paper abstracts.”

More information on the April 2006 conference is available from the Pension Research Council website.
