In this workshop, we will be discussing the Population Association of American (PAA) annual conference, how sessions are organized, and what qualities reviewers are looking for when assessing submissions, particularly extended abstracts. We will then discuss some tips for writing a good submission and choosing an appropriate session to submit to. Attendees will have the opportunity to have their extended abstract reviewed by a peer and a faculty member, as well as to review one of their peers’ manuscripts.

PAA 2026 will be held in St. Louis, Missouri. See below for more details and a link to the Call for Papers:
