Announcements
We are launching the AFFE Design Workshop Series, short online workshops for early feedback on field experiment designs before data collection begins.
We are currently looking for presenters for our first two sessions. Each session runs about one hour on Zoom, with a 10–15 minute presentation and open discussion. A research question and an active design is enough — no paper or preliminary results required.
For details and to submit your design, visit the Experimental Designs tab.
We are excited to announce the start of our Virtual Workshops for 2026. Our first workshop will take place on April 3, 2026.
For details on the workshop schedule, speaker, and paper, please visit the Webinars tab.
