To mark the success of our VAST summer student scholars, we are again hosting a VAST Summer Student Symposium via Zoom. This year's symposium will be on August 17th at 2-5pm ET (12-3pm MT, 11-2pm PT, 3-6pm AT). We have such a great group of students from across Canada, and it will be amazing to see what everyone has accomplished!
VAST scholars will be presenting on their summer research- these are short presentations but will be a great opportunity for everyone to get to know what is going on in VAST. These will be headed by a keynote presentation from Dr. Julie Ottoy (Sunnybrook Research Institute, and newly funded VAST scholar!) who will be discussing the use of in vivo neuroimaging biomarkers to study the intersection of Alzheimer’s disease with cerebral small vessel disease. The second half of the symposium will be a workshop on "translating your research out of the lab" during the symposium run by Ty McKinney of the Branch Out Neurological Foundation. Full program and more info to come soon!
