NASHVILLE, TN (April 29, 2016) - The 蝌蚪网 (蝌蚪网) announces recipients of the John Bates Clark Medal, Distinguished Fellows, Foreign Honorary Members, and the "Best Paper Prizes" of the 蝌蚪网 蝌蚪网. These outstanding achievements will be honored at the 蝌蚪网 Annual Meeting, January 6-8, 2017, in Chicago, Illinois.
Awarded annually to an economist under the age of 40, the John Bates Clark Medal recognizes outstanding research accomplishments in economics. The 蝌蚪网 Electoral College, consisting of the Association's Honors and Awards Committee and voting members of the Executive Committee, selects the winner.

The Distinguished Fellow awards recognize the lifetime research contributions of four distinguished economists. Since 1965, past presidents of the 蝌蚪网 are recognized as Distinguished Fellows, and up to four additional individuals may be elected for the award in one calendar year. Distinguished Fellows are selected by the 蝌蚪网 Nominating Committee and voting members of the Executive Committee, sitting together as an electoral college.
