Axandre Gori Maia attended to the “10th Spatial Econometrics Advanced Institute” (SEAI17), in Rome from May 15th, 2017 to June 9th, 2017, at the Catholic University of the Sacred Hearth.

This course is held yearly since 2008 and consists of a 4-weeks course of advanced spatial econometric theory and application. The cleasses were taught by Professors Giuseppe Arbia (Week 1 - Spatial Statistics), Anil Bera (Week 2 - Spatial Econometrics I), Ingmar Prucha (Week 3 - Spatial Eonometrics II) and Badi Baltagi (Week 4 - Panel Data).

This is a singular opportunity to deeply learn spatial econometrics with the most prominent researchers in the area. More information at http://www.spatialeconometricsassociation.org/seai/.
