2020 UBC PSYCHIATRY VIRTUAL RESEARCH DAY

We are pleased to announce that the 2020 UBC Psychiatry VIRTUAL Research Day will take place via Zoom on Thursday October 15th 2020!

In previous years, the UBC Psychiatry Annual Research Day provided an opportunity for Department members from across various sites, disciplines and experience levels to listen, learn, network, and interact.

With social distancing measures still in place, the Department’s first ever virtual Research Day event will aim to bring Department members together online, and showcase all the exciting and innovative research being conducted across Department.
