R in Finance

2016 May 20-21, Chicago.

2 days, limited space, 50 speakers, including:

Abstract: How can the abstract be written for a talk with an ambiguous and possibly misleading title without itself being vague and misleading? I don’t know, but perhaps: A quest to discover how markets work that starts in the Yucatan.
