The purpose of this workshop week is to familiarize social scientists with genetic data and provide instruction on how to incorporate genetic information into social science analyses. Next to short general introductions into the topic of genetics in the social sciences, all workshops offer hands-on training for researchers working at the intersection of genetics and social science research.

Volker Lang, Bielefeld University and SOEP/DIW Berlin; Bastian Mönkediek, Bielefeld University
Workshop 2 (Oct 9-10): Introduction to behavioral genetics

Workshop 3 (Oct 11-12): Integrating molecular genetics into social science research
Felix Tropf, University of Oxford; Robbee Wedow, Stanford University
All three workshops can be booked and attended separately, we recommend interested researchers to participate in the whole workshop week.
Selected participants will have the opportunity to present and discuss their own research ideas or projects in the form of a poster presentation with the lecturers and participants of the workshop in the evening of October 8, 2018.
Participants interested in a poster presentation are asked to apply by submitting a short outline (about 0.5 pages) of their research idea or research project until August 20, 2018. Click here to submit your application.
