PhDs Go Public Research Talk Series: Bridging Communities

April 26, 2019, 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm

Montalbano Family Theatre Vancouver Public Library, Central Branch

The PhDs Go Public Research Talk Series returns once again in 2019 with five talks, where doctoral students tell their community-engaged research stories in just under seven minutes.

First initiated by the Graduate & Postdoctoral Studies in the 2015-6 academic year, the PhDs Go Public events spotlight PhD students from UBC's Public Scholars Initiative, who use the Pecha Kucha format to present on how their research is contributing to the public good, and making a change in the world. This year's themes include education, indigeneity, health, social justice, and environment. 

Language Sciences member and Linguistics doctoral student Khia Johnson will speak on April 26 at the event, 'Bridging Communities'.

You can RSVP here.
