Accepted to Present at Behavioral Operations Conference, July 15

My paper with Qiuping Yu and Kurt Bretthauer, “Linking Customer Behavior and Delay Announcements: Are Customers Really Rational?”, was accepted to be presented at the Behavioral Operations Conference at the University of Wisconsin-Madison on July 15. The conference is a single-track conference focused on issues in behavioral operations, so everyone at the conference can hear my presentation. More details here: Behavioral Operations Conference.

Here is my accepted 1-page abstract.

Other cool things happening at this conference:
-There is a Young Scholars Workshop on Friday, which offers advice to graduate students and young faculty members.
-Justin Sydnor is presenting a tutorial at the Young Scholars Workshop. I took two classes, Game Theory and Behavioral Economics, with Professor Sydnor at Case Western. He’s now at UW-Madison.
-As far as I can tell, I am one of four graduate students accepted to present at the main conference. 14 talks will be given. Everyone else is faculty.
-Asa Palley, who will be starting as an Assistant Professor at IU next fall, is presenting on the second day of the main conference.
