The National Cancer Institute and the Office of Behavioral and Social
Sciences Research will sponsor an intensive, 7-day workshop for early
career investigators July 6-13, 2008 at the Fluno Executive Conference
Center in Madison, Wisconsin. The objectives of the institute are to
allow 25 attendees to extend their understanding of the assumptions

theories are tested and improved, and to examine how to use theories
appropriately in designing interventions for behavioral risk factor
modification. Lead instructors include researchers Neil Weinstein,
University of Arizona, Alex Rothman, University of Minnesota, Susan
Curry, University of Illinois at Chicago, and Barbara Curbow,
University of Florida.
Applicants from all disciplines are welcome to apply. Multiple

You must have received a doctoral degree by the beginning of the
course and have completed at least one graduate level course in the
behavioral sciences and one graduate level course in statistics.
Participants must be U.S. citizens. There will be a $500 meeting cost
to participate in the institute. Travel, meals, and lodging will be
provided. More information, an application, and comments from previous
participants are available at http://cancercontrol.cancer.gov/workshop/.
Please forward this message on to anybody you think may be interested
