Arkansas Lifespan Research Conference.
In this issue of The TRIbune, we highlight the recent Advancing Arkansas Lifespan Research Conference, which featured Neal Halfon, M.D., as the keynote speaker. The day-long event also included a diverse range of topics presented by eight UAMS-affiliated researchers, including those from Arkansas Children’s Research Institute and the Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System.
This issue also includes a story about TRI’s Community Engagement Core, which has joined a multisite study funded by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI). The collaboration involves seven other community engagement teams across the U.S. with the aim of promoting and strengthening institutional support for community-based research and patient/community leadership in research.
In addition, we recognize our Summer Writing Challenge winners and highlight our K12 Mentored Research Career Development Scholars Program, which has two upcoming information sessions ahead of its letter of application deadline.
