Design a Study: with Dr. Cat Hicks

Welcome to Design a Study with Dr. Cat Hicks! Join us on November 13, 2025 at 10:00 AM (Pacific Time) for a casual interactive session where we dive into the world of research design.

Ever wonder how scientists scope their initial ideas? Want to propose a software study that you really think should exist in the world? Heard the term 'confounding variable' and want to sound smart when you use it?! We're going to spend an hour workshopping research ideas from the community (that's you!) and learning about research design.

Absolutely no research experience needed or assumed. This event is perfect for: 1) folks who are just curious to see more of the backstage of research 2) folks who want to build some skills in evidence literacy 3) folks who are generally suspicious of the idea that statistical analysis tells you everything you need to know about a study.
