Research Methods Workshops
Research Methods Workshops are
offered to the NPCRC career development award grantees and are conducted in
conjunction with the annual Foley Retreat. The workshops consist of 6-8 rotating
topics focusing on specialized statistical methods developed to improve data
analysis and address the difficulties commonly encountered in palliative care
research. Topics include challenges in observational data analysis,
hierarchical modeling, instrument selection and development, healthcare cost
analysis, and qualitative and mixed methods research.
