#StudyDesign
A well-justified epistemological foundation is a key requirement for a #DelphiStudy:

The team argues that #ReportingGuidelines encourage researchers to reflect on and disclose key assumptions and methodological choices in such studies.

"A practical resource for engaging older adults as active partners in community-based research"
Research participants being fully informed about the research and to provide their voluntary consent to participate is a cornerstone of ethical research practice.
Secondary school pupils in Cameroon explored how to engage with consent principles, main focus were benefits and risks of participation, #VoluntaryParticipation, and confidentiality

This is the annual Summer Course of the Doctoral Program Brain and Behavioral Sciences, and comprises a mixture of keynotes, masterclasses, hidden curriculum etc.
I am very much looking forward to it, and also very honoured to be invited once again to Bern to train #ECRs!
