I'll speak on March 4 at the Stanford medical school. I gather that everyone is welcome, but you have to register in advance.
MEDICAL MATCHES: A Market Design Perspective
What Match Day, kidney donors, and economic theory have in common.
March 4, 2015
6:30 PM - 8:30 PM
WEDNESDAY
Register Now
Join the Stanford University Medical Center Alumni Association for an evening with Nobel Prize Winner Alvin Roth, MS ’73, PhD ’74, as he explains how he uses economic theory and marketplace algorithms to systemize courtship in real world settings. From redesigning the National Residency Matching Program to helping surgeons maximize transplant exchange programs, he will share how the economics of transactions help us find new ways of connecting.
Space is limited. Pre-registration is required. Register now!
Alvin Roth is the Craig and Susan McCaw professor of economics at Stanford University and the Gund professor of economics and business administration emeritus at Harvard University. Roth has made significant contributions to the fields of game theory, market design and experimental economics, and is known for his emphasis on applying economic theory to solutions for "real-world" problems. In 2012, he won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences jointly with Lloyd Shapley for the theory of stable allocations and the practice of market design.
