Market Design

I'll post market design related news and items about repugnant markets. See also my Stanford profile. I have a general-interest book on market design: Who Gets What--and Why The subtitle is "The new economics of matchmaking and market design."

Match Day 2015! 1,035 couples participated...

Congratulations to all the new docs!  Today was Match Day for the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP)

Here's a selection of stories that crossed my screen today:

Press Release: 2015 Residency Match Largest On Record With More Than 41,000 Applicants Vying For Over 30,000 Residency Positions In 4,756 Programs
" An all-time high of 1,035 couples participated in the Match, 110 more than last year, with a 94.8 percent match rate."

The fates of thousands of med school students are decided by this Nobel Prize winning algorithm

Match Day: Then & now

Matching Dreams: Students ring in the future of medicine on the first day of spring (Harvard)

Medical students open envelopes and glimpse their futures: A national event that places graduating medical students into residencies, Match Day is both a celebration and a nerve-wracking affair. (Stanford)
