The Children's National Conway Chair Conversations are designed to engage us in lively discussions and demonstrations about developing research ideas and solving the challenges that can confront taking that idea into a research study. This series of research discussions feature a different topic each month. Attendees are able to actively shape the ideas and influence their development.
