Seminars

In collaboration with the Department of Bioengineering, we host seminar presentations at which Canadian and international experts are given the opportunity to present their cutting-edge research. Requests to present a seminar should be directed to our seminar coordinator.

Seminars are usually held from 1:00pm - 2:00pm Friday in Duff Medical Building and in MacDonald Engineering Building alternatively. Due to construction, seminars are temporarily held in Wong Building. Please click on the poster links for more information.
