EPID@Work Research Into Action Conference

Hosted by the EPID@Work Research Institute at Lakehead University, our Research Into Action Conference will include community panels discussing why research matters in Northwestern Ontario, research presentations from EPID@Work scientists and researchers, and networking opportunities with professionals interested in occupational health and safety, disability prevention, and local workforce issues.

The Research Into Action Conference will be held on October 22, 2024 from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Italian Cultural Centre in Thunder Bay, ON. The conference is free to attend, but we are asking for donations to the Regional Food Distribution Association in lieu of a registration fee. Cash or non-perishable goods can be donated at the door. A complimentary lunch buffet and refreshments will be provided for all attendees.

Ultimately, the focus is to create understanding of why researcher-community collaboration matters and how regional research and knowledge transfer can impact Thunder Bay and Northwestern Ontario as a whole.
