WPS 2.0 will commence in September 2021 and the programme's key activities will span over the course of four months. The programme includes the following:
Two methodology seminars covering process tracing and regression analysis
Opportunities to collaborate on research projects
Call for new proposals, which will be screened by the WPS coordinators and Managing Principal Investigator, Dr Allison Spencer-Hartnett
A feedback loop for selected projects:
Guidance or supervision by a CoronaNet principal investigator
Peer-review among participating research assistants
Option for research assistants to publish their working papers with CoronaNet, and have their works featured on the PERISCOPE Consortium's public website.
WPS 2.0 will also include a practice trial for CoronaNet research assistants who are planning to present at the upcoming PHSM Conference in October. We highly encourage participants of WPS 1.0 to apply for the conference as well as take part in this practice trial, which will be hosted and guided by Dr Cindy Cheng.
