2025 CHHD Research Day

Welcome to the 10th Annual Child Health and Human Development Research Day -

Friday May 9, 2025

Child Health and Human Development Research Day is an annual event organized to provide the program members and guests with information about the research spearheaded by our researchers, and to reinforce and initiate collaborations.

All CHHD members from the CTB, CORE, investigators and associate investigators are invited to participate in this event!

CHHD Trainees will be put forward as we want this event to be an opportunity for you to showcase your results to your peers, receive feedback on your work and most of all, improve your communication skills which is essential for any future researcher.

This Research Day will also allow everyone to familiarize themselves with research from our CHHD members and an Invited Speaker!

We are looking forward to seeing you at this year's CHHD research day!
