Our summer Journal Club meetings will be held 2x a month (June to August) and typically last for 1 hour via Zoom! During these sessions, we will delve into recent publications, share insights, and engage in thought-provoking discussions around race and health equity.

This time is a great time to gain civic science knowledge, increase scientific communication and awareness, as well as build connections with other UAEMers over summer 2024!
