Health Research Seminar Series

The goal of the Health Research Seminar Series is to provide space for students and faculty to engage in discussions about current health research from across all programs and campuses within and outside of UNBC. The Series runs once a month during the Fall and Winter semesters. To ensure everyone can access the presentations, each session will be broadcast via Zoom and recorded for viewing on this site. The HRI would like to recognize Sun Life Financial for their contribution to the seminar series.
