We are thrilled to invite you to this historic and vibrant location, renowned for its rich cultural heritage and stunning landscapes. This conference will bring together leading researchers from around the world to discuss the latest advancements and challenges in cluster randomised trials. This will be a small conference, with maximum of 30 attendees, designed as an opportunity to present and discuss, in detail, cutting edge cluster trials research. Unlike a typical conference with a few invited longer presentations and numerous short presentations, this conference will be the opposite - it will feature a default of longer-than-usual contributed talks of 20 minutes plus 15 minutes discussion [exact duration TBC], with a limited number of shorter talks of 15 minutes plus 5 minutes discussion [TBC]. Talks that are works in progress (rather than fully completed work) are particularly encouraged.

The major goal is to foster a collaborative environment where ideas can flourish, new partnerships can be formed, and established collaborations can be strengthened. 

The conference is in-person only, with no online option available. 

Please see the links at the top of the page for registration, abstract submission, and other relevant conference and information about the town of Prato.

Thank you in advance for joining us in Prato. Let's make this conference a memorable and impactful experience for all!
