Research Week 2008

Each spring the Carver College of Medicine, College of Public Health, and the VA Medical Center sponsor Research Week. Internationally-known speakers are invited to lecture on current health topics; and workshops and panel discussions are presented by UI faculty and staff.

There are poster sessions for faculty, staff and students that provide excellent opportunities to showcase College of Public Health research to the University community. Winners of the student and staff competitions are recognized at an awards reception and also invited to attend the Research Week banquet. The involvement of CPH faculty, staff, and students makes it a special week for the College.

Research Week 2008 will be held April 1 and 2. This year's program will focus on innate immunity. For more information about Research Week 2008, visit the Research Week website at http://www.medicine.uiowa.edu/research/researchweek/.
