About the series

Hosted by the Tippie Research Office, the Behavioral Research Roundtable Series offers a space for faculty, visiting scholars, and graduate students to share and discuss behavioral research in a collaborative, low-pressure setting.

The series seeks to provide opportunities for interdisciplinary conversation about study design, subject handling, and methodology, while offering new insights for more experienced researchers.

Each Roundtable features a 20-minute presentation - by an individual or a panel—from Tippie or another college, followed by open discussion. Roundtables are designed to be interactive, with time for questions, feedback, and shared insights, as well as a chance to connect with others who share similar research interests.

Who should attend?

All researchers interested in learning about behavioral research, including faculty, visiting scholars and graduate students. Interdisciplinary attendance is encouraged to foster broader learning and collaboration.
