UCL Populations & Lifelong Health Domain Symposium 2018

Registration is now open for the UCL Populations & Lifelong Health Domain Symposium on Tuesday 8 May 2018 at the UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health.

This one-day event, organised by the UCL Populations & Lifelong Health Domain, will showcase population health research taking place across UCL. Talks are planned on a diverse range of themes including migration, population mental health and ageing.

Attendees will also enjoy an 'In Conversation' session, in which science writer and broadcaster Vivienne Parry will lead a candid and far-ranging conversation with Professor Sir Malcolm Grant (Chairman of NHS England) and Professor Dame Anne Johnson (Professor of Infectious Disease Epidemiology, UCL Institute for Global Health; and Chair, UCL Populations & Lifelong Health Domain).

The event will provide an opportunity to hear from funders about their plans for the future funding of population health research and there will be plenty of opportunity to network with colleagues and build new collaborations.

We are also holding an abstract competition for UCL early career researchers around the session themes (migration, population mental health and ageing). Abstracts must be submitted using the Eventbrite registration link (below).

The deadline for submitting abstracts is 5pm on Monday 9 April. The abstract competition is open to early UCL career researchers (ECRs), i.e. those in the early stages of their research career. We encourage you to self-define whether you identify as an ECR, but entries are particularly encouraged from post-doc researchers up to junior lecturer. Note that there is no age limit here.
