The Belmont Forum is hosting a second researcher matching webinar on Tuesday, June 3rd, from 12pm-1:30pm Eastern Time that focuses on the breadth of end users and best practices for engagement of end users in the development and implementation of research projects. The webinar features a panel of experts representing a variety of end user perspectives and organizations. Webex details, including a link to international dialing options, are below.
