EaRTH's 4th Annual Research and Translation Forum
Tuesday, February 11, 2025
11 am - 5 pm (doors open at 10:30 am)
Join us to get new ideas, find new collaborations, and learn about the latest research methods in environmental health. We will have fascinating presentations from your EaRTH research colleagues, networking opportunities and special guest speakers.
The theme of this year's forum is: Use of cutting edge in vitro/in silico tools to understand chemical impacts on human health.
This meeting is in person only at the UCSF Mission Bay Conference Center, Robertson Auditorium, 2nd floor. Registration is not required, but is appreciated.
