Webinar Series: HEAL Connections Sharing Sessions
HEAL project teams have effectively extended research results beyond academic journals and into practice settings where they can have the most impact. HEAL Connections, a center that aims to help HEAL researchers build and sustain community partnerships and meaningfully share research results, is amplifying the impact of those teams with this Sharing Sessions series.
Sharing Sessions are opportunities to learn actionable tips and real-world case studies from peers across the HEAL research spectrum who have successfully engaged with community partners to disseminate research results.
Upcoming Events
