Introducing our Advancing Research community workshop series!

07/24/2024

Join the conversation about the most critical topics in research!

Although Advancing Research 2025 won’t take place for another nine months, we’re already hard at work researching and designing the conference program. Like last year, we’re kicking things off with a series of free, public (virtual) conversations on the topics most important to our field. These conversations are centered around themes integral to research, starring researchers just like YOU!

Stay tuned as we announce the lineup for each event, and register in advance to attend these free sessions!

Each free virtual workshop is made up of panelists who will share short provocations on engaging ideas to discuss as a group, as well as a leader in our field to moderate. If you’re looking for discussions that challenge the status quo and can truly advance research, look no further than our workshop series.

P.S. We’ll be drawing most of our Advancing Research 2025 conference speakers from those who present at upcoming workshops—so tune in for a sneak peek of what’s to come from #AR2025!
