Connecting Research to Health Justice in Local Contexts Symposium

Join us at Morehouse School of Medicine for a day filled with insights, discussions, and networking opportunities. Learn from community leaders and researchers as they share their experiences and strategies for creating positive change.

This symposium is part a national Strengthening Pathways for Health Research initiative—a program funded by Doris Duke, American Cancer Society, American Heart Association, Susan G Komen, among other foundations focused on rethinking how we invest in health research that prevents disease and improves health outcomes, especially in communities that are too often left out of the conversation.

This is a unique chance to connect with like-minded individuals who are passionate about improving health outcomes for all. Don't miss out on this impactful event!
