About GENED

The German Network for New Economic Dynamics (GENED) brings together a group of economists who work on the development
and application of computational models of economic dynamics based on interacting heterogeneous agents. As demonstrated in the
literature, such an approach allows for fruitful new insights into important economic phenomena and policy issues in a wide range
of areas. GENED is built on the conviction that the potential of the application of computational heterogeneous agent models for
economic analysis is huge and that it is essential to strengthen the community of (in particular young) researchers who are
willing and able to incorporate state-of-the-art methods in this area in their research.

An increasing number of researchers located in Germany are actively involved in the computational analysis of heterogeneous
agents dynamics. With meetings envisaged once a year, GENED will offer them, most notably doctoral students and their supervisors,
a forum to present and discuss their work. Furthermore, GENED members will have access to mini-courses on the graduate level
given at the participating universities to further strengthen education and collaboration among the doctoral students.
We are very confident that GENED will enhance the quality, visibility and impact of the work of the participating researchers in the
scientific community and beyond.
