Outreach
We appreciate assistance from our trainees, faculty, and staff to host groups like high school students, researchers, clinicians, and community organizations. Whether you are trained on specialized equipment or looking to learn more by helping, there is a spot for you. We need assistance with demos, tours and sometimes providing a short talk for events either on campus or off site. Individuals interested in gaining experience talking about their research with a variety of audiences may find this a rewarding experience. It also provides an opportunity to build your CV with extra-curricular involvement.
Community members who are interested in a first-hand look at the research happening are welcome to submit an inquiry. Please contact Laura Gonzalez <laura.gonzalez@uwo.ca> with any questions.
