We will discuss how it was developed, introduce the CAMELOT domains and go through a worked example of applying CAMELOT. Participants will then have the opportunity to work in small groups and practice applying CAMELOT to a primary study. We will then discuss any questions or challenges that arise when applying CAMELOT.
