Presentations - Workshops for Early Health Services Researchers
The HSRAANZ held its second one-day workshop for early career health services researchers in Melbourne on 5th June. The format was similar to the first workshop, held in Sydney last year, with the majority of sessions involving an early career researcher presenting his or her own project and a discussant providing critical comment. Many emerging researchers took the opportunity to seek content and design advice from experts in the field in the early stages of their projects, but some also sought guidance regarding analysis and dissemination of the findings of more established projects.
