Upcoming Seminars:

PRC Seminar Series
The PRC Seminar Series is considered part of the Training Core at the PRCHN. Initially conceived as two separate events, one (Brown Bag Series) of which would bring local public health or chronic disease experts to speak at the center and the other (Seminar Series) to bring national public health/chronic disease speakers/presentations to the PRC. The two have been recently combined, and will now be know as the PRC Seminar Series.
The PRC Seminar Series brings together public health professionals and academic researchers over lunch on the every month to hear presentations and discuss chronic disease prevention in Greater Cleveland. We'll provide a light lunch and plenty of food for thought...
These monthly events are held at the PRCHN suite of the fourth floor of the BioEnterprise Building. Please see Center Address (For Visits & Deliveries) on our Contact Us page for additional info on how to visit us here.
