About this Event

Gairdner Connects University Lecture

Hosted in partnership with the University of Ottawa

This fall, we are excited to welcome Drs. Daniel De Carvalho and Jennifer Stinson, 2025 Peter Gilgan Canada Gairdner Momentum Award laureates, to University of Ottawa as part of the Gairdner Connects University Lecture Program. We invite undergraduate students, researchers, faculty, and the broader academic community to attend this special event.


The program will feature a university lecture and interactive Q&A session on Tuesday, October 21, providing an opportunity to engage directly with Drs. De Carvalho and Stinson. A faculty reception will be held the evening prior, on Monday, October 20, offering a more informal opportunity for connection and conversation with Drs. De Carvalho and Stinson.


About Gairdner Connects: Gairdner Connects is the Gairdner Foundation’s national outreach program, bringing science to communities across Canada. Through interactive events, discussions, and digital resources, we inspire future innovators and foster meaningful connections between Gairdner Award-winning scientists and the next generation of researchers. As an official Gairdner Connects event, this initiative helps spark public dialogue about the role of research in addressing global health challenges.
