International Health Conference - King's College London 2016
We are delighted to announce that Special Interest Groups will be organised during lunch time on Friday, June 29. Special Interest Groups will be relaxed meetings of delegates interested in a particular research area. Their purpose is to enable the discussion and exchange of ideas among researchers of different backgrounds and even foster prospective collaborations among delegates. The Special Interest Groups are free for all delegates to attend.
Each Special Interest Group will be convened by a delegate whose work corresponds to the broad research area of the group. Conveners will introduce the topic of the group by giving a brief description of their own research on this subject area as a means to open the discussion. They will then invite other participants in the group to talk about their research projects at present and their prospects in the future.
