The ACS will host the ninth biennial Health Services Research Methods Course November 30–December 2 at the ACS headquarters in Chicago. The course is offered to clinical and health services researchers with varying degrees of experience in the field and will feature didactic lectures and skills-based labs tailored to individual interests, as well as one-on-one consultations with leading experts focused on specific research questions. In addition to quantitative and qualitative methods, participants will become familiar with mixed methods and implementation science. Breakout sessions will focus on writing R-award and K-award proposals and securing a first faculty position. Participants will engage in active discussion of scientific and practical aspects of ongoing surgical health services research with leaders in the field.
