Researchers from across different schools and colleges at UMass and the Five Colleges come together over lunch to discuss diversities and disparities in the health group. Typically, 2 faculty or graduate students and sometimes staff each present for 20 minutes followed by 15 minutes of discussion. It is an excellent forum to hear about work on health taking place across campus share your work receive feedback and forge new collaborations across disciplines. The Institute holds an annual seed grant competition to support multidisciplinary work on this theme. Applications are due March 1, 2020. For more see: www.umass.edu/diversitysciences .
