Community-Driven Research Readiness Day

Posted by Children's Hospital of Philadelphia on October 20, 2014

Plans begin for 2015 Community-Driven Research Day

Community-Driven Research Day (CDRD) encourages collaboration between university-based research partners and community-based organizations (CBOs) who have research questions that they are interested in answering.

Through an interactive poster session, CBOs will highlight their research questions to researchers from The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, The University of Pennsylvania, Temple University and Drexel University. CBOs and academic researchers will be able to meet and discuss potential collaborations.

The 2015 CDRD will take place on Thursday, January 29th, with a theme of Evaluating Your Impact on Healthy Neighborhoods. CBO’s must submit a form to participate no later than January 14th. To present a poster, complete the online submission form.

Research Readiness Day is a technical assistance event for groups interested in presenting a poster during CDRD. All organizations interested in displaying a poster at CDRD are strongly encouraged to attend Research Readiness Day prior to submitting their request to participate. Each attendee will receive an overview of Community Based Participatory Research (academic and community partners working hand in hand in research); review the submission and review process for CDRD; learn how to develop and refine research questions; receive information on how to design a poster presentation; and receive an overview of the meaning/types of evaluation. 2014/2015 Research Readiness Day will take place on Thursday, November 13th.

To register for the event, go here.
