• The Tobacco Online Policy Seminar (TOPS) is a free multidisciplinary, international forum for research with tobacco policy implications using experimental or quasi-experimental study designs (i.e., with a well-defined counterfactual). TOPS strives to be a respectful, inclusive, and diverse forum, with participants and attendees united around the concept of presenting and learning from tobacco research using study designs capable of producing results with a causal interpretation. All presentations are on Fridays from 12-1 pm ET.  Please join the email list for updates and Zoom invitations, or follow us on Twitter @tobpolicy. For a complete schedule of presenters and to see videos from past presenters, please visit the TOPS website. If you are interested in presenting for TOPS, submit your research/workshop idea here.

• The Center for Statistical Training by Curran-Bauer Analytics, CenterStat, offers rigorous yet accessible training workshops in applied data analysis and research methodology that are explicitly targeted to empirical researchers in the social, behavioral and health sciences. They place an equal balance on core aspects of the underlying statistical models and on the thoughtful application and interpretation of models fitted to real data using a variety of available software packages. For all statistical and methodological resources and an up-to-date list of upcoming livestream workshops, visit the CenterStat website.

CASEL coordinates a monthly webinar series to facilitate communication and information sharing across the TRS community. Typically, CASEL schedules 1-2 webinars per month. These hour-long sessions are venues for TCORS/non-TCORS investigators and trainees and federal affiliates to discuss relevant published articles, research-in-progress, common issues faced in TRS research, timely hot topics, and to provide training. Webinar materials are archived on the TRS Knowledge Center, unless otherwise requested by the presenter(s). Please see the bi-weekly Digest issues for registration and upcoming webinar topics.
