Investigators, research staff and students can learn about the relationships between global and local health research, as well as resources available to support a variety of research needs, at the ninth annual meeting of the Indiana Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute (CTSI), a National Institutes of Health-funded collaboration among Indiana University, Purdue University and the University of Notre Dame.
The 2017 Indiana CTSI Annual Meeting, which will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Dec. 8 at IUPUI’s Hine Hall in Indianapolis, will include scientific presentations, panel discussions, networking opportunities, a poster session and keynote addresses by Dr. Dan Hartman of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and Dr. Peter Agre, winner of the 2003 Nobel Prize in Chemistry — all with an emphasis on this year’s theme of “Global to Local Health.”
