Urban Health Institute Showcases Student Research at Annual Event
The Urban Health Institute (UHI) hosted the 6th Annual Student Research Day to showcase the remarkable intellectual achievements and pioneering research efforts of UHI’s diverse student community.
The student poster presentations were the focal point of the event, providing a platform for emerging researchers to articulate their discoveries, methodologies, and the importance of their work with clarity.
The presentations offer students a valuable opportunity to display their diligent efforts, while also allowing peers, faculty, and industry professionals to explore new and developing areas of study.
This year, they announced the Dr. Erik Fleming Award of Excellence in Health Disparities Research recipients, Emily Baghramian (Master of Public Health student) and Angelica Godfrey (Postbaccalaureate Leadership Program student). This honor not only recognizes individual achievements but also reinforces the significance of impactful research within the academic community.
UHI focuses on supporting biomedical and behavioral research and its translation into high-quality clinical outcomes, improved community health, and progressive health policy.
