Research Workshop
SoCO Research Workshop
Bring the work before it’s finished.
The Research Workshop is a recurring multidisciplinary space for investigators to bring forward work in progress, challenge assumptions, refine methods, and develop collaborative projects across cutaneous oncology.
Why the Workshop exists
Good science gets better through criticism.
Many clinical investigators first receive sustained criticism only after a study has been designed, analyzed, and written.
The Research Workshop creates space to bring ideas forward while there is still time to change them—from an early clinical question or trial concept to preliminary analyses, methodological problems, and mature projects seeking broader multidisciplinary input.
The goal is not simply to present work. It is to make the work better.
Invite criticism
Make assumptions visible and give colleagues room to challenge the framing, methods, and interpretation.
Build together
Use discussion to identify collaborators, complementary expertise, and opportunities for multicenter science.
The working principle
Our best ideas deserve our colleagues’ best criticism.
Research Workshop sessions may include new study concepts, trial designs, preliminary data, statistical or methodological questions, reproducibility challenges, data-sharing opportunities, and collaborative projects across the spectrum of cutaneous oncology.
The work may be early. It may be incomplete. That is the point.
