Presentation:

The workshop is meant to address issues related to the determinants of heterogeneity in health, education, and early socio-economic outcomes, and to investigate how this heterogeneity affects individuals at entry in the labor market, their labor market participation, labor market mobility, life-cycle wage growth, and wage dispersion.
The idea of the workshop is to gather leading labor economists from Europe and the U.S. to present their work on these topics.
