Dear IPCRG Colleagues

IPCRG Research School: Introduction to Qualitative Research

Our first IPCRG Research School in Europe: Introduction to Qualitative Research is running 23-24 May before the Scientific Meeting. The programme is as follows:-

 At the end of the course participants will be able to:

  • Understand the topics that qualitative health research can successfully address (strengths and criticisms)
  • Recognise the main data-collection methods used in qualitative research and their advantages and limitations (type of interviews - structured, semi-structured, open ended, focus groups and their main characteristics and applicability)
  • Write a topic guide, understand its role (and limitations) in interviewing techniques and test it (on day 2)
  • Recognise the nature of the complementarity between quantitative and qualitative methods
  • Apply learned skills to writing a proposal for a qualitative research question from the respiratory medicine field (or borderline with other disease areas) and submitted it to bid for the IPCRG prize

Pre-work: In advance of the meeting, please consider the research question you wish to pursue, and read the published literature so you are ready to take advantage of the workshop to learn about the methods.  Information will be sent to those who register.

Led by our IPRG Expert Research Faculty, this is a great opportunity to learn the theory and also practice interviewing techniques with the support of expert teachers and mentors. There is a competition for the best protocol with a research grant prize of €10,000 to enable the research protocol to be tested. This will be judged on Saturday morning 25th May.

More information on the Research School is available here.

Spread the word to your colleagues and sign up now!

Kindest wishes
