PRIS-CHA Workshop: Paper in a Day at PHM
July 19, 2018 - 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Paper in a Day at PHM is co-sponsored by Pediatric Research in the Inpatient Setting (PRIS) and Children's Hospital Association (CHA). The workshop is targeted to fellows or junior faculty who would like to learn how to use administrative data (e.g. HCUP KID, PHIS) for research. We will describe existing databases available for research, and provide a roadmap to successfully conduct research with this type of data. We will perform an actual study and draft a manuscript. At the conclusion of the workshop, all analyses will be completed, tables and figures will be ready for publication, and the manuscript will be outlined.
Register for the workshop by emailing: sherri.arens@childrenshospitals.org.
