We have partnered with the Consortium for the Advancement of Research Methods and Analysis (CARMA) to offer the CARMA@SMA Symposium which is bundled with SMA conference registration. The symposium consists of two workshops – one before the conference on Wednesday afternoon and one after the conference on Saturday morning – that will offer extended hands-on experience of research methods topics from recognized scholars. This is in addition to eight research method PDIs offered during the conference from well-known and accomplished scholars on a variety of quantitative, qualitative, micro, and macro topics.
