 The Center for Gerontology and Health Care Research conducts an informal Brown Bag Seminar series as a venue for investigators and staff to present each other's work, present new ideas to brainstorm, and present information pertinent to all, such as review of benefits. Sometimes individuals from outside of the Center present work relevant to individuals within the Center.

The Brown-Bag series convenes during September through May on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of the month between Noon-1:00 pm at the 121 S. Main Street, Conference Room #247. For more information, or if you are interested in presenting at this venue, please contact the series organizer, Susan Miller
