The Milton Friedman Institute for Research in Economics was an academic center at the University of Chicago that operated from 2008 to 2011 as a collaborative, cross-disciplinary site for economic research, drawing on the university's business school, economics department, and law school. Named for economist Milton Friedman, it aimed to advance economic research applying analytical tools to real-world problems, and it ceased as an independent entity in June 2011 when it merged with another center to form the Becker Friedman Institute.
