Dear all, At the end of 2022, the Weizenbaum Institute <https://www.weizenbaum-institut.de/en/> in Berlin, Germany, has established a new research unit called "Methods Lab <https://www.weizenbaum-institut.de/en/research/wdsc/methods-lab/>", which provides internal training and consulting on methods at the Institute. Additionally, we provide resources that researchers who are not members of the Institute can also use, and that may be of interest to you. These resources include: hybrid workshops that can be accessed for free online (see Program <https://methodslab.weizenbaum-institut.de/program/> page for past and upcoming events), an overview of external workshops mainly in Germany, but also online, called "Methods Ticker <https://methodslab.weizenbaum-institut.de/program/methods-ticker/>“, and a blog, in which we inform about our latest activities and about research projects at the WI (see here <https://methodslab.weizenbaum-institut.de/blog/>). We hope that this is of interest to some of you.
