For the past 15 years, the NIGMS-funded Institution Development Awards (IDeA) programs in Rhode Island have joined together to hold a state-wide, day-long symposium that both celebrates successes and fosters collaborations among Rhode Island investigators. The theme of the 2022 symposium is “Health Disparities in Clinical and Translational Research”. The symposium aims to educate and engage biomedical investigators in RI regarding the importance of engaging diverse populations in the planning and the execution of clinical and translational research, with the ultimate goals to reduce health disparities in our state and to improve the health of all Rhode Islanders.
We’re excited to announce that the two featured keynote speakers for this year’s symposium are Dr. Clyde Yancy and Dr. Mariana Stern. Additionally, we look forward to many science talks, breakout sessions, and poster presentations by investigators from Brown, The University of Rhode Island, and the affiliated hospital systems.
