It is our pleasure to invite you to our bi-annual Workshop at the Crossroads of Law and Economics, this time on the topic of experiments (field and laboratory).

The workshop is co-organized by Erasmus School of Economics  and Erasmus School of Law, with the support of the Erasmus Center for Economic and Financial Governance (ECEFG), and the Erasmus Centre of Empirical Legal Studies (ECELS).

Presenters come from different fields (law, economics, psychology, and others) and discuss their work relevant to legal questions and empirical research. Each presentation is then followed up by a stimulating discussion.
