Research in Conversation: Introducing the National Health Innovation Campus

We’re excited to announce our first public lecture as part of our brand-new ‘Research in Conversation’ Event Series.

This November, we’re opening the doors to our newest establishment: Daphne Steele, within the new National Health Innovation Campus at the University of Huddersfield, and you’re invited!

As part of our event, you'll have the pleasure of hearing from Professor Liz Towns Andrews, who will be giving an overview of current activities, future plans and vision for the National Health Innovation Campus.

Following this you’ll hear an insightful presentation by Professor Jane Owen-Lynch (acting Dean of the School of Human and Health Sciences), as she showcases the groundbreaking research and innovative projects taking place in the Daphne Steele Building.

Each of our lectures will give you the opportunity to get involved with a question-and-answer session, and the chance to network with like-minded individuals, with complimentary refreshments and sweet treats.

Our Research in Conversation events are free and open to members of the public, students and staff.
