Research in the field of economics is one of CEMFI’s foundational goals. The research profile of its faculty, as well as the research activities of PhD students, staff researchers, and visitors is clear proof of our research orientation.

Research activities are also reflected in the numerous seminars and academic conferences that we organized, in the participation in research projects and networks in conjunction with other institutions, and in the working papers that facilitate the diffusion of our research output prior to its publication in scientific journals or books.

CEMFI’s research excellence is evidenced by various facts:

• The long list of papers published in top journals, including American Economic Review, Econometrica, the Journal of Political Economy, the Review of Economic Studies, and the main top field journals.
• CEMFI professors who are or have been managing editors, co-editors or associate editors in reputed journals such as the Review of Economic Studies, the Journal of the European Economic Association or the Journal of Applied Econometrics.
• CEMFI professors who belong or have belonged to executive committees of scientific associations such as the Econometric Society or the European Economic Association, and take part in the organizing or scientific committees of major international congresses and conferences.

The high profile of the presenters, discussants and panellists who participate in our seminars and conferences is yet another indicator of the quality of our research environment.
