Hello All, Please review the opportunity below. If you are interested in learning more about Cluster-Randomized Trials (CRT) this is an EXCELLENT opportunity. There is a short application process, but if selected Northwestern will provide lodging and course materials. I attended a similar workshop at Northwestern a few years ago and found it to be a very valuable experience. If you have questions, please let me know.
