1. All faculty and Postdoctoral Fellows: If you have collaborative research projects, or engage in knowledge translation and outreach activities, I would like to invite you to participate in the “Rapid Research Rounds,” a chance to share your research and how you translate research strategy into impact through collaboration. If you are interested in presenting, please reply by the end of the day on Monday, October 27th. Each presentation will be 4 minutes, and I hope to include 8 presenters to represent the range of research at ULethbridge.
1. Postdoctoral Fellows, Graduate, and Undergraduate Students: If you know a trainee who can showcase a research poster from a conference, class, or symposium, please extend an invitation to them. Research posters will be displayed throughout the venue. Trainees are not required to attend or present their work but are welcome to enjoy the event.
