The Annual Crossroads Interdisciplinary Health Research Conference

The Crossroads Conference, established in 2002 by graduate students and faculty in the School of Health and Human Performance (HAHP), provides students with an opportunity to present their health-related research in a supportive and interdisciplinary environment.

Organized by graduate students, Crossroads provides a meeting place where students and faculty can interact with members of different health-related research communities. Both graduate and undergraduate students may present their research findings.聽聽

The Crossroads Conference is held in the spring term of each year. A call for conference presentation abstracts, which can include thesis abstracts, goes out in the early part of the winter term.
