Commission Research
We are always in search of new research opportunities and project ideas. If you represent a nonprofit, government office, elected official, or anyone else with research needs, we would love to learn about them. To commission research, co-sponsor an event, inquire about previous work, or independently suggest a project, please contact us at:
When reviewing project proposals, we consider our technical and personnel capacity, the level of interest among our researchers, and our ability to access relevant data. Don't hesitate to reach out; no topic is off-limits and no project is typical.
