The Coase Institute webinar series started in 2020, developed by Mary Shirley, Alexandra Benham, and Lee Benham. In these webinars, outstanding NIE scholars discuss their research topics and methods and also answer questions from the audience. A major focus is how to do good research. Webinar speakers discuss how they carried out their own research – selecting the question, working with theory, methodology,and data, the hurdles they confronted, the main lessons they learned.
