Hard-to-Reach Populations Training Program

“Short Trainings on Methods for Recruiting, Sampling, and Counting Hard-to-Reach Populations: The H2R Training Program” 

This program will train scholars and mentors on state-of-the-art methods for sampling, population size estimation, bias analysis, and engagement of hard-to-reach (H2R) populations in behavioral, social sciences, and clinical research.

Eligible scholars and mentors will be enrolled in a 6-month mentored program with the opportunity to attend scholar-led monthly science talks, four short courses, and other activities, which will enable them to initiate lines of research among hard-to-reach populations. The short courses include 1. Sampling, 2. Population Size Estimation, 3. Bias Analysis, 4. Community Engagement Research Methods. The mentors will also participate in the H2R mentor training course.   

The program will be held in person at UCSF Mission Hall (2nd Floor, Room 2500) and online via Zoom.
