To enhance the diversity of the economics research community, the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) offers an outstanding early-career economist who is a member of a group that historically has been under-represented in the economics profession, or whose research contributes to advancing the diversity of the economics profession, the opportunity to visit NBER’s Cambridge office for a year of intensive research.
