Deepening Engagement and Equity in Research: Next Steps in Research Ethics

Coming up on Wednesday, March 2nd, the University of Minnesota will host the Annual Research Ethics Day Conference – Deepening Engagement and Equity in Research: Next Steps in Research Ethics.

Join interdisciplinary experts via Zoom to hear how engagement and equity will shape the future of research ethics.
