SMPH Collaborate

An event series for investigators, researchers, and learners

The next installment of SMPH Collaborate will be held on Friday, November 22 from 3-5 p.m. in Health Sciences Learning Center Room 1345.

All individuals from across campus involved in research — including undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, research staff, and faculty — are welcome at SMPH Collaborate, an event series from the SMPH Office of Basic Research, Biotechnology and Graduate Studies. The Fall 2024 edition of SMPH Collaborate is focused on postdoc research.

SMPH Collaborate fosters connections among investigators, researchers, and learners through the sharing of research discoveries and building of community. Events, typically held twice a year, include two components. The first hour features four postdoc researchers presenting novel research and innovative technologies. A social hour offers time for discussion to promote collaboration and a postdoc poster session to engage with further research being done across the SMPH community.
