Understanding Interventions

• Conference:

  • The 2nd Annual Conference on Understanding Interventions thus continues the embrace of investigative approaches in studying interventions that broaden participation in research careers in the sciences by URMs. The focus now shifts to the development and recognition of a multidisciplinary community of scholars. The conference will reach out to scholars in the behavioral, social and economic sciences who will not only present their research in poster sessions and mini-symposia, but will also participate in discussions related to activities beyond the annual conference on Interventions. Such discussions will address issues of funding for Interventions research, organizations that represent networks of relevant expertise and opportunities for collaboration, and the identification and development of outlets for disseminating interventions research around which the community can coalesce
