Research Seminars
Seminars are the perfect opportunity for PhD students to learn about the current research frontier and are open to the public. In many cases it is possible to personally talk to the invited presenters before or after the seminar - a valuable opportunity to discuss own ideas. Berlin is unique in Germany in terms of its wide range and frequency of seminars. Additional Seminars can be found at the website of the Berlin based Economics Postdocs.
